Theme & Variations Decorative Plate #334 (Woman With Finger on Lips) 

This decorative plate, part of Fornasetti's *Theme & Variations* series, features a recurring motif in the artist's work - a woman's face with a finger on her lips, conveying a sense of silence or secrecy. The black and white image, executed in a graphic style, is reminiscent of vintage illustrations. The work exemplifies Fornasetti's fascination with the human face and his playful use of repetition and pattern. The plate is a testament to Fornasetti's distinctive approach to design and decorative arts.
