The Balilla figure represents a young Italian boy, likely part of the Balilla, the youth organization established during the Fascist period in Italy. He is dressed in a uniform typical of the Balilla, which includes a short-sleeved shirt, shorts, and a scarf tied around his neck. The Giovane Italiana figure represents a young Italian girl, part of the female counterpart to the Balilla, promoting similar values of youth and nationalism. The two figures are equally detailed, with attention paid to their hair, facial features, and the texture of their clothing. The delicate folds and accessories are rendered with precision, highlighting the artisan skill of Nove and the mastery of Antonio Zen. They are in very good condition overall. less
