Pair of late 18th century terracotta lions from Naples

A striking pair of late 18th century terracotta lions from Naples, retaining their original polychrome. Expressively modeled with bold manes and stylized faces, they reflect the theatricality of Southern Italian Baroque sculpture. Mounted on original painted plinths, with appealing surface wear from age and exposure. Rare at this scale and condition.
