MOTHER WITH CHILD, Richard Aurili, 19th / 20th century
Sculptural bust showing the profile of a mother and a child.
The woman, facing her daughter, kisses her cheek tenderly. Her closed eyelids make it impossible to see the raised corners of the child's mouth with satisfaction.
The protruding head of the girl and the wide-open eyes testify to the careful observation of maternal protection. The whole emerges from a raw, sculptural setting.
