Description
Busto in maiolica di personaggio femminile (Marfisa), vestito con un'armatura riccamente decorata. Interno in buona parte non smaltato.
Historical-Criticism news
Il personaggio di Marfisa si trova nell'Orlando innamorato di Matteo Maria Boiardo e nell'Orlando furioso di Ludovico Ariosto.
Questo busto e una "Laura" della Wallace Collection di Londra sono ottimi esempi di sculture realizzate a Deruta nella seconda metà del Cinquecento.
