Description: The highly prized Neopolitan ceramic sculptor Guido Cacciapuoti (1892-1953) hailed from a family of ceramic artists and enjoyed international recognition beginning in 1920 with his contributions to the XII Venice Biennale. (Among those who collected his work were Prince George of England and Umberto II, the last King of Italy.) With the establishment in 1927 of his porcelain factory in Milan, Cacciapuoti's success rested significantly on his Art Deco-style busts and his animal sculptures, such as the Rooster and Hen offered here.Cacciapuoti did a number of iterations on the theme of Rooster and Hen, but none as detailed or as colorful as the one offered here. Bearing the creator's label and signature, the sculpture stands eleven inches tall and just over eight inches wide. It is in exceptional condition, with no chips, flea bites, cracks, scratches, scuffs, or color loss. Measurements: 11" (h) x 8.25" (w) x 6" (d)
