Sicilian opera dei pupi or puppet theatre is an ancient tradition [about which I think I should post separately one day] the stories being based upon Norman legend. Here Gino has depicted some of the characters on wood. Next is a painting of a traditional Sicilian house, and below it the same house, painted on wood. The stems of the gerberas on the tile are not painted - they were already a feature of the tile.
I've never heard of opera dei pupi so please do tell us about it.
ReplyDeleteOnce again very nice art work

Hi, jmb. I will write about it during the week. Gino will be pleased by your comment.
ReplyDeleteAgain, the painting of the house is the one for me.
