Terracotta bust sculpture of a young girl, handcrafted in Sicily in the first half of the 20th century (about 1930s). It has original patina with signs of use and age. The chosen subject reflects ideals of youth and innocence. The original patina on the sculpture indicates the natural aging process of the terracotta over time. It may have acquired a weathered appearance due to exposure to the elements or the environment in which it was displayed or stored. Patina manifests itself as discoloration, texture or a worn surface and contributes to the overall aesthetic appeal and historic appeal of the sculpture. Signs of use and age, such as small chips, cracks or scratches, are common in ancient terracotta sculptures; these blemishes may have occurred from handling, movement or wear over the years.
