Nativity scene - Earthenware, Glass, Textile - Neapolitan Mastiff - 23 cm

Rare vintage nativity figurine, finished according to the most classic Neapolitan nativity tradition. The figure depicts a young shepherd / bourgeois man, finely modeled and distinguished by an intensely expressive face and a dynamic hand pose. Artistic and construction details: Head and limbs: Masterfully modeled, with rich sculptural detail in the incised hair and open hands. Period clothing: Dark jacket trimmed with gold braid, an intricately worked inner waistcoat with gold motifs, tiny coral-orange buttons, and a colored collar. Internal structure: Made using the traditional method, with a tow-stuffed mannequin and articulated iron wire. Condition: The figure remains in its original period condition. The silk garment shows age-related tears that reveal the antique stuffing beneath. Perfect both for collectors who wish to preserve it with its patina of age and for enthusiasts interested in a conservative restoration of the garment.
