In creating this plate that depicts one of the most evocative streets of my hometown, I wanted to convey the feelings I experience when I’m walking there in the Spring.

For the realization of this plate, I drew a preliminary study sketch of the characters. In fact, I don’t like majolica that depicts stereotyped subjects in static postures and always with the same expressions. Of course the sketch serves only as a guide, because the decoration of this plate, as in all my majolica, is done entirely freehand.
