Polychrome terracotta sculpture, signed Ezio Caccarelli (1865-1927). This Italian sculptor, president of the Florentine Academy of Fine Arts, is known for his award-winning work depicting realistic, expressive human figures. This work, entitled "Les Noces D'or" and manufactured by "Fontaine & Durieux Paris", shows a couple with wrinkled features embracing tenderly. The man places his hand on his wife's shoulder. The two lovers are smiling slightly, in a state of bliss. 50 years of love, joy and pleasure, as well as worries, angers and arguments, have not undermined the union of this man and woman who arrived together at the dawn of their lives. Loving each other through thick and thin is the theme that the artist expresses in this sculpture. "Les Noces D'or" is an ode to the timelessness of love. ******** Period: Late 19th century Excellent condition.
