Sculpture | Multi-Figure "Vase" | Part of Elisa Valenti's private collection
Nine figures adorn this vase-like sculpture. The figures honor their “vessels” delighting in the beauty and vigor of their real, luscious forms and create an intricate pattern of shadows and celestial mounds and valley of female form
This 20 lb sculpture, like all Valenti’s sculptures, is made entirely by hand with the use of air dry clay, acrylic paint and 24k gold leaf.
It stands approximately 10” tall and 8” wide .
Due to its weight and delicate nature, local hand delivery is recommended. (Tri-state area of NY) although, shipping outside of this area can be arranged. the piece will be fully ensured in the event of damage upon arrival. Because of its unique one of a kind nature, it would not be duplicatable or replaceable.
Relief, also called relievo, (from Italian relievare, “to raise”), in sculpture, any work in which the figures project from a supporting background, usually a plane surface and in this case the “vessel”.
Reliefs are classified according to the height of the figures' projection or detachment from the background.
