Lamart interprets for the first time in Capodimonte porcelain, the legend of the "Moor's Heads", a story of love, jealousy and revenge.

  • A Sicilian girl of noble origins experienced a clandestine love affair with a young Arab, but this impossible love was soon discovered and the dishonorable act was punished with the beheading of both young lovers. The shame of this love would also have been proclaimed by the posting of both heads (transformed into vases for the occasion) on a balcony. The massacre, glorified by these heads placed at the mercy of passers-by, would thus have been an active warning against any other possible unseemly passion. For this reason, the Moor's Heads would be made in pairs, in memory and in honor of the two murdered lovers.
