Maria 1924

Filippo Cifariello's 1924 sculpture "Maria" depicts a young woman in a contemplative pose. The bust, crafted in a realistic style, captures the subject's delicate features and melancholic expression. The unfinished base adds to the sense of incompleteness, emphasizing the artist's focus on the emotional depth of his subject. This piece showcases Cifariello's skill in portraying human emotion through a combination of form and expression.
