Code art.: 9935
Price: 670,00 €

Ancient Neapolitan vase called "Testone". The decorations follow the designs of the vases that Vanvitelli in 1751 presented to the King of Naples Charles of Bourbon for the Royal Palace of Caserta. On that occasion, Vanvitelli did not limit himself to designing the architectural part of the Palace, but presented an infinite series of drawings representing the smallest details, including the famous vases called "Valentino Cup".

You can read it in Agostino Bossi's book:
Agostino Bossi - LE TERRECOTTE NELLA TRADIZIONE PARTENOPEA - Edizioni Scientifiche Italiane.
I vasi disegnati dal Vanvitelli per la Reggia di Caserta avevano gli stessi motivi, festoni, foglie d'acanto in serie tra fasce di borchie nobiliari.
