This striking ceramic figure represents a poignant interpretation of the theme of virginity, deftly crafted by the skilled hands of Sandro Vaccetti for the renowned Essevi manufactory in Turin, Italy. Rendered in a graceful, sinuous pose, the delicately modeled female form is clad in a lustrous glaze, its subtle curves and contours evoking a sense of chaste vulnerability. The figure's posture, with arms modestly draped across the torso, conveys a sense of quiet introspection, inviting the viewer to contemplate the complex interplay of innocence and concealment. The signature of the artist along with the name of the work, 'Verginità', and the Essevi manufactory markings, are all visible on the base of the figure.
The ceramic medium, a hallmark of the artistic output of Turin during this period, lends an exquisite tactility to the work, while Vaccetti's masterful rendering of form and expression elevates this piece beyond mere figurative representation. The innovative glazing techniques employed by Essevi further enhance the piece's allure, imbuing the surface with a captivating luminosity that deftly captures the play of light and shadow. This captivating work stands as a testament to the enduring artistic legacy of Turin's ceramic tradition and the skilled craftsmanship of its artisans.
