Description by the gallery owner

This red pencil from the well-known Giotto brand is made of Carrara marble. What immediately strikes the observer is the artist's incredible technical mastery. The sculptor was able to work the marble with such precision that it looked like wood. The pencil deceives the viewer. What is the true nature of the material, marble or wood?
Valeria Vaccaro, like the great masters of the past, manages to sculpt marble in such a way as to make it look like living flesh, challenging the hardness of the material. The work is not only a tribute to the Italian sculptural tradition, but also an affirmation of the expressive possibilities of marble, a material that, in the right hands, can transcend its nature to become whatever the artist desires.
The choice of Carrara marble, known for its purity and quality, adds a further level of prestige to the work.
