Giuseppe Ercolano

He is a sculptor from Meta di Sorrento, born in 1976 and always attracted by the most classic and traditional nativity scene, the Neapolitan school of eighteenth-century inspiration.

A master in the most complete sense of the term, he ranges from the creation of classical figures to the execution of entire sets, without neglecting the production of all the accessories, and finally the real sculpture, that of the wood used for the Sacred Statuary.

The deep bond with his land, the traditions, the "aesthetic taste" are the ethical principles of Giuseppe Ercolano, one of the greatest contemporary exponents of the Neapolitan nativity scene.
