A refined terracotta sculpture depicting a "Girl's Head," a work by the renowned Piedmontese sculptor Sergio Unia. The artwork is distinguished by its plastic sensitivity and its ability to capture a moment of intimate reflection.
The composition features a delicate and dreamy female face, characterized by closed eyes and a gently inclined head, supported by a hand that naturally emerges from the base. The surface of the terracotta is worked with a vibrant and material texture, giving the work a tactile quality and an expressive depth typical of the artist's production.
The style aligns with the great Italian figurative tradition of the 20th century, where formal research is combined with melancholic lyricism and timeless grace. The choice of terracotta, a primordial and warm material, accentuates the subject's humanity.
The work bears the signature S. Unia, guaranteeing its authenticity and origin from the hand of the master from Roccaforte Mondovì.
The object is in excellent condition, preserving its original patina and the definition of its plastic details intact.
