The Tuareg Medusa Moor's Head h 20 cm — Giardini dell'Eden Line is one of the rarest and most sought-after pieces in the Ceramiche Sofia collection: the Tuareg shape is enriched with the iconography of Medusa — the Gorgon that in Sicilian tradition is a symbol of protection — in the Giardini dell'Eden version, with a wisteria luster finish that recalls the colors of wisteria flowers, delicate and enveloping like a spring garden. A piece that unites three symbolic systems — the Tuareg, Medusa, the garden — in a sculpture of extraordinary cultural complexity and visual beauty.
