Minotaur sculpture Murano glass - L. Bubacco -

Beautiful Murano glass sculpture signed Lucio Bubacco on the base. Bubacco is among the most celebrated contemporary Murano glass masters, renowned for his extraordinary ability to transform glass into true three‑dimensional narratives inspired by mythology, fantasy, and the classical world. The work depicts a black anthropomorphic figure with a bull’s head, identifiable as the Minotaur, captured in a dynamic and theatrical pose. The character is shown balancing on an elaborate pedestal of transparent green glass scrolls, while extending one arm upward, upon which a small bird is perched. The composition is conceived with a refined sense of movement and verticality, characteristics that distinguish many of Bubacco’s creations. Work of remarkable visual impact, in which fantasy, mythology, and exceptional craftsmanship merge into an elegant and instantly recognizable creation. The condition is excellent.
