About the Item
Francesco Raimondi, Lucky Horn, 2020 glazed earthenware, platinum and gold, hand painted, unique piece
Measures: Approximate 100cm x 25 cm
A cornicello Italian for '"little horn" or "hornlet"'), corno (Italian for "horn"), or corno portafortuna (literally "horn that brings luck" in Italian) is an Italian amulet or talisman worn to protect against the evil eye and bad luck in general, and, historically, to promote fertility and virility. In Neapolitan, it is called curniciello or variants thereof. The amulet is also sometimes referred to as the Italian horn.
Francesco Raimondi was born in 1959 in Vietri sul Mare on the Amalfi coast, where he currently lives and works. A decorative artist by vocation, from his adolescence he trained at the major ceramic’s factories in the area. Raimondi represents one of the most significant contemporary expression of Southern Italy Majolica tradition: he is an exquisite decorator transferring traditional propitiatory grotesque themes into a contemporary fresh and innovative interpretation. From the late 1990s Francesco Raimondi has taken part in numerous exhibitions at regional, national, and international level. His solo shows include “Contemporary Mediterranean” at Palazzo Sant’Agostino and at the Temple of Pomona in Salerno and “Raimondesche” a large retrospective of his work hosted at MIC - Museo Internazionale delle Ceramiche in Faenza, the museum with the largest ceramics collection in the world. In 2006, part of the Regione Campania pavilion, Raimondi won the Gold Medal at the Chelsea Flower Show in London, awarded by Queen Elizabeth II. In 2016 he was assigned the title “Master of Arts and Crafts” by the Cologni Foundation at Milan Triennale and was included in the Golden Book of Italy’s Crafts Excellence. In 2018 he was granted the title of Knight of the Order of Merit of the Republic of Italy by President Sergio Mattarella. Francesco Raimondi pieces are part of the permanent collection of several museums worldwide, including the Museu Nacional do Azulejo in Lisbon, Musée de la Céramique in Nabeul, Tunisia, MIC - Museo Internazionale delle Ceramiche in Faenza and FuLe International Ceramic Art Museum in Xi'an, China.
