Irene Kowaliska is among the main characters who form a group of artists of Germanic origin such as Richard Dölker, Margarete Thevwalt Hannasc and Marianne Amos, who gave life to the so-called "German period", where in the enchanting landscape and culture of the Amalfi Coast they opened the way to a renewed artistic production of Vietri ceramics. The work, The Salerno Market - Small Point Embroidery - exhibited here, tells the energy contained in the custom of the market, that simple life that fascinated the Germans in Southern Italy. In fact, Kowaliska expresses through the colors, the smells, the flavors, the market scene where from the balconies you can admire the different activities of women intent on drawing water from the fountain, the women carrying water with jugs on their heads, images that constitute one of the most significant motifs of the imagery of the archaic and primitive South: it is the myth of water and at the same time the relationship with nature and daily life.
