G. LEGNANI (Italian, late 19th century) FRUTTO PROIBITO (Forbidden Fruit), PORTRAIT OF A YOUNG GIRL
Terracotta; 22 by 13,5 by 11 cm. Signed 'G. Legnani', titled ' Frutto proi….'.
Possibly the author of this terracotta is Giovanni Legnani, a Cremonese sculptor. Surely we can smile, in our days, looking at this nice representation of the mischievous charm of a young girl.
