IMITATION OF OBJECTS IN POST-PALEOLITHIC SCULPTURE

Fig. F20) Glass bottle shaped like electric bulb.
Italy, 1970.
This liqueur bottle is an imitation of a light bulb; it has been produced for "mignon" bottles collectors.

Fig. F21) Dwellings with round floor plan with conical roof (Trulli).
Having ancient origins, they are located in Puglia, in the Murge. In the countryside many of these houses have been abandoned and are semi-destroyed. In the town of Alberobello they have been restored, becoming a popular tourist attraction.
In the picture, a ceramic souvenir, 6 cm high, used as a small decoration for the beauty, and the curious and uncommon look of the conical roofs.
Italy, 1980.
