Vincenzo Gemito - Gemito Vincenzo Napoli 1852-1929 - Sculpture, Pescatorello - 23 cm - Marble, Silver

[ translate ]

Coming from an inheritance, this rare ancient and beautiful sculpture in 800 silver is one of the icons of the great Neapolitan master Vincenzo Gemito. It represents the famous Pescatorello; Young boy fishing with a rod on a rock. Very suggestive and original, the work is part of exclusive pieces that Gemito had made in good quality silver and a net weight of the silver alone of 2295 g. This work is one of the best known and actually also reproduced. Of excellent workmanship and quality, it is a rare and beautiful object. It can certainly be dated between 1890 and 1910. The finishing is excellent, the engravings are also noteworthy and it is certainly rare: its dimensions mean that it fits into any context and style, immediately giving elegance, beauty, interest and prestige. The general conditions are good considering its age. It has 6 hallmarks and exactly the signature, the silver hallmark and 4 others of which I was unable to read well. There may be microscopic scratches as shown in the photo, but it must be understood that it is more than 100 years old and in excellent condition. The shipment will be made by express courier, insured and tracked, while the packaging will be professionally done
