Shepherdess with little lambs 30 cm Angela Tripi terracotta.30 cm Italian nativity statue in terracotta of a busy shepherdess feeding two little lambs.The statue by Angela Tripi is characterized by an extraordinary realism that makes the object unique of its kind.Worthy of note are certainly the facial features of the female figure, as well as the long work necessary to separate the fingers of the hands.It is a nativity statue made entirely of hand-painted terracotta after firing with tempera colors and subsequently dressed in carefully modeled starched fabrics.The pretty shepherdess holds a bucket containing milk in her hands to feed the two little lambs.Observing the sweet harmony between the gaze of the female figure and one of the two lambs, one can understand all the love felt by the shepherdess for her small animals.The entire nativity shepherdess statue rests on a 22x11 cm terracotta base that bears the signature of the famous nativity scene who made it. 100% handcrafted in Italy.
