Polychrome terracotta sculpture, signed Ezio Caccarelli (1865-1927). This Italian sculptor, President of the Academy of Fine Arts in Florence, is known for his award-winning work depicting realistic and expressive human figures.
This work, titled “Les Noces D’or” and published by “Fontaine & Durieux Paris”, depicts a couple with wrinkled features embracing tenderly. The man places his hand on his wife's shoulder. The two lovers show a slight smile and a certain bliss. These 50 years of love, joy, pleasures, but also worry, anger or disputes will not have been right about the union of this man and this woman who arrived together at the dawn of their lives.
Getting old by loving yourself against all odds is the theme that the artist has been able to express through this sculpture.
"Les Noces D'or" is an ode to the timelessness of love.
