LABEL 15 - DONNAFUGATA DOLCE&GABBANA "TANCREDI": VARIAZIONI

 I think the top label of DONNAFUGATA deserves a better analysis. In fact the central sun of the label comes from a Sicilian tradition and it is also possible to be seen in the Manuscript "Beatus Tarnoviensis" in some "variations on the theme"


As you can see, the sun (or also moon) has this way to be represented in Sicily. The Jacli company is a very pretty Sicilian company producing liquors/spirit from typical Sicilian fruits (oranges etc.), while the Beatus Tarnoviensis, belonging to the Counts Tarnowski (Poland) was inspired in this painting by the Sicilian artists that decorated the Royal Palace in Palermo. Here the page from where the sun and the moon has been taken:


At the end, the tradition of this label is very evident also in the Terracotta of Caltagirone and hence it is possible to appreciate the study for this label.
