View of some Ceramic Vases by Marieda Di Stefano

View of some ceramic vases by Marieda di Stefano, in his studio at the School of Ceramics. Marieda Di Stefano, born in Milan in 1901, absorbed her family’s love of art from childhood, her father Francesco having been a collector, especially of Sarfattian Novecento works. Fascinated by the possibilities of texture and colour of ceramics, after a traditional education Marieda took lessons in the studio of sculptor Luigi Amigoni. She exhibited her works over the years, earning recognition in many national and international shows. In 1962, a school of ceramics named after Marieda was established in the same building, at number 15 via Jan. Still operating today, it is directed by Migno Amigoni, daughter of the maestro and a personal friend of Marieda since the Thirties.
