Dear family and friends

thank you so much for thinking of us during the last period

we were concentrating much in getting Antonio back in good shape and therefore decided to stay in silence 

Antonio went through another operation in the beginning of the month

it went very well and is home ( in Mui Wo) resting 

guess what

he did even his first sculptural piece inspired by the fountain of Tacca in the Santissima Annunziata of Brunelleschi in Florence , where we got married thirty years ago.

the images of the ospedale degli innocenti , the bambino as well as mother and child were painted by me, commissioned by Antonio.( joking)

Thank you again for the good wishes and thoughts

Have a very peaceful Christmas 

Happy New Year, too

p.s. PISAPIA ( Last name) Antonio ( First name)

for those who are confused about Antonio's identity. He seems to prefer to use An Dao ( 安道 ) as his artistic name.

25th December 2020

Antonio prepared his marine nativity on our Noguchi's table at our house in Mui Wo. Buon Natale.

 ( post-scriptum)

ever since that day, Antonio has been producing other works .The mostri piece has also been disassembled and turned Into other pieces . The Madonna and child, however remains. (15/04/2021)
