Colapesce Medusa Decorative Plate #2

A true gem of ceramic art, this decorative plate in glazed red clay belongs to the Colapesce Collection, series inspired by the popular Sicilian legend about a half-fish, half-human creature who replaced with his own body a cracking column that was sustaining the island. The sunburst motif of blue and brownish jellyfishes capturing the eye is deftly painted by hand.
