Sheep in terracotta, 13 cm created by Angela Tripi.
The nativity sheep figurine looking up is made with careful attention to detail. All the nativity animal figures are hand crafted in terracotta and cloth, then, painted by hand. There are beautiful works of art made by Sicilian artist Angela Tripi. Normally the statues of the traditional nativity scene, for example the Neapolitan one, are made with a skeleton made with fabrics and with the ends in terracotta (the head, hands and feet). The statues of the artist Angela Tripi instead have completely formed bodies: they are shaped naked and subsequently dressed with fabrics and small jewels. In her works, the artist tells a story: each statue is depicted in a moment of their life, thus allowing us to understand the existence of a before and after. Angela Tripi succeeds in giving each shepherd an amazing realism, never seen before and unrepeatable: her works will never be the same, rendering each piece one of a kind. Suited for a 13 cm nativity.CHARACTERS MAY DIFFER FROM THE PHOTO AS EVERY SCULPTURE IS A UNIQUE PIECE, BY CHOICE FROM THE ARTIST.
