Life size Majolica tin glazed terracotta Greyhound glass eyes

Country: Italy
Period: 1950's-1960's

Description: A rather fantastic life size majolica tin glazed terracotta sculpture of a greyhound with glass eyes. It is excellently rendered and detailed. It appears to be hand thrown as I can't find a seam for a mold. There has been a significant repair as the head has been re-attached. It is stable now.

Condition: Head has been re-attached and repaired. There are some glaze chips as well.

Materials/Techniques: Tin glazed terracotta-majolica
