Carretto Siciliano

By Sallyvalenti, 14 October, 2016
Description

EXCELLENT CONDITION:

Antique Sicilian Cart, Era 1880's! This is hand painted in Taromina Italy by Cateno Privitera!  The Workmanship is very authentic to the era. 

This hand-painted cart tells many tales of history, before our time.  Its authencity is genuine.  You can't find a more depicted Cart that has so much detail.   There is hand wrought metal details that add another dimension to this beautiful piece of folk art.  A life size traditionally decorated donkey is included.

The history and scenes on this Cart, have a story to tell, and I have researched online to find out the following information that would help describe the workmanship of these Carts.Again,You may contact me through my email: [email protected]
