Mendicant 13cm Angela Tripi

Mendicant 13cm Angela Tripi
Nativity scene figurine made by Italian artist Angela Tripi.
Each character is completely hand-made, different and therefore unique. The figurines are extraordinarily detailed, charismatics and expressive.
Angela's statues have a complete body: this means that the character is created naked and then is dressed with clothes(unlike other statuettes where only hands, feet and head are completely sculpted).
You will be able to notice particulars like the tense muscles, tendons and expression wrinkles. While looking at these small pieces of art, you will realise you are looking at the history of a man or woman, 'captured' in a particular moment of their life.
These figurines draw inspiration from the ancient Arabian world and are re-elaborated in a personal way by the artist, with the aim of recreating the magical atmosphere of the nativity.
THE CHARACTERS MAY DIFFER FROM THE ONES IN THE PICTURES BECAUSE EACH SCULPTURE IS A UNIQUE PIECE, INTENTIONALLY DIFFERENT
