Moor Magi King 18 cm, Angela Tripi

Moor Magi King 18 cm, Angela Tripi.
The Magi King has finally arrived in front of the manger of Baby Jesus. The journey was long, difficult and tiring but the joyous feeling felt in front of the Savior is worth the sacrifice. All the statues are hand-made, in terracotta and cloth, with skill and care by the Sicilian artist Angela Tripi. Normally the statues of the traditional crib are made with a skeleton made of cloth and with terracotta ends (the head, hands and feet). In his works, the artist tells a story: each statue is depicted in a moment of his life, thus allowing us to understand the existence of a before and after. Characteristic details often emerge as tense muscles of a slave or the expression lines of an elderly person. Angela Tripi succeeds in giving each shepherd an amazing realism, never seen before and unrepeatable: her works will never be the same, precisely because they are unique. Adapted for an 18 cm nativity scene.
