A beautiful handmade terracotta nativity sculpture with the warm expressive style that European studio artists became known for in the seventies. The scene shows Mary, Joseph and the shepherds gathered closely around the Christ child, carved with gentle emotion and earthy texture.
This signed studio piece dates from 1975. The artist used rich terracotta clay with deep relief modelling that gives the figures a timeless and almost medieval feel. Perfect as a soulful Christmas accent, ideal for rustic, folk art, and handcrafted home décor styles.
Perfect holiday gift.
