Descrizione:

Trained at the Museo Artistico Industriale in Naples and at the Accademia di Belle Arti in Rome, where he was a pupil of Cambellotti, in 1923 Giulio Rufa exhibited terracotta works together with Ferruccio Palazzi and Roberto Rosati in the Roman section at the First International Exhibition of Decorative Arts in Monza. Active on several artistic fronts, he was particularly involved in ceramics, a field in which he collaborated with Ferruccio Palazzi. This vase with globular shape and everted rim, marked “Roma/Rufa” under the base, is typical of his early ceramic production. Glazed and painted earthenware vase with globular shape and everted rim, signed under the base.
