About this artwork

Sicily or Trinacria
Let's start by saying that the original name of Sicily was Trinacria itself. This was due to its unique shape which clearly refers to a triangle, the tops of which would be represented by three promontories: Pachino, Peloro and Lilibeo. These are represented by the three branches. The central head rather refers to the Greek myth: some say that it is Medusa, the only one of the three Gorgons not to be immortal and whose beauty… fascinated all the men who, as soon as they turned to look at her, transformed themselves. in stone. Perhaps this is why it was an ancient custom to place a trinacria behind the door of the house, as a symbol of protection, or to decorate vases, houses and villas with motifs that represent it as symbol of luck.
