The work has a strong form, almost architectural, with sloping walls and tapered base. The cobalt blue enamel is applied in an irregular and textural way, emphasized by vertical engraved marks that evoke totemic forms. A classic example of Fantoni’s plastic and material research, between craftsmanship, primitivism and modernist abstraction. Signed under the base: Fantoni Italy.
