Item description

The Shepherd of the Neapolitan Nativity Scene is a true icon of Neapolitan artistic craftsmanship, with deep roots in 18th-century tradition. Its head, finely modeled in polychrome terracotta, captures unique expressive details. The clothes she wears are custom-sewn, made with period fabrics that faithfully recall the style of the working classes, from farmers to merchants of Naples between the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Each shepherd thus tells a story, making the nativity scene not only a sacred scene but also a small glimpse into Parthenopean life and culture. ATTENTION! This item clearly shows signs of wear and some traces of restoration. These very characteristics make it unique, authentic and truly fascinating. It's as if he brings with him a lived story that makes him special and full of charm.
