These 12 sculptures are the last pieces of a series in stone carved by Italian sculptor Serena Tallarigo during the 1980's. These works are available individually or as a collection--one that reflects the attention to composition, design and detail typical of the best Italian stone sculpture of that period. This collection also marks a time when the stone veins in Carrara and elsewhere in Italy were yielding exceptionally fine material. These works are available in New York City. | Please click any image to view larger image and, in some cases, to learn sizes. |
