The New Plates With Festive Still Lifes
«Still Life with Wrens» — “Priest’s hat” plate – Ø cm. 30 – High-fire (920 °C)
I just love the joyous chromatic richness of still life paintings. I have wanted to transpose this subject onto the majolica, adapting it to an uneven surface… in this case, the “priest’s hat” plate creates a sort of deep hollow in which are nested the baskets from which are joyously emerging flora and fauna’s bountiful gifts.
