Zen &amp; Son\u201d factory was founded in 1885 by Gio Batta Zen, in partnership with Demetrio Primon. His son Antonio, a skilled sculptor, created a wide range of traditional style objects. In the 1920\u2019s, the Zen factory was one of the most important in the area, with 80 employees and six kilns. In 1905, the sculptor Antonio Zen made the copper statue of Saint Peter placed on the top of Nove\u2019s bell tower. He also made fours concrete statues of the Evangelists for the bell tower, but they were never mounted and are currently placed in the courtyard of the factory. <\/p>\n<p>In 1924, in order to embellish the factory, he made the large bas-relief frieze, where he illustrated the different phases of ceramic production undertaken by worker putti. A large female figure is placed in the corner like a ship\u2019s figurehead, holding a small vase in her hands.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"w-image align_center\"><div class=\"w-image-h\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"650\" src=\"https:\/\/www.museonove.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/zen-1.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.museonove.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/zen-1.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.museonove.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/zen-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.museonove.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/zen-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.museonove.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/zen-1-350x350.jpg 350w, https:\/\/www.museonove.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/zen-1-600x600.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><section class=\"l-section wpb_row height_medium\"><div class=\"l-section-h i-cf\"><div class=\"g-cols vc_row via_grid cols_1 laptops-cols_inherit tablets-cols_inherit mobiles-cols_1 valign_top type_default stacking_default\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"w-btn-wrapper align_center\"><a class=\"w-btn us-btn-style_1\" title=\"Open-air Museum\" href=\"https:\/\/www.museonove.it\/en\/pages\/museo-diffuso-nove\/\"><span class=\"w-btn-label\">See all the stops of the Open-Air Museum<\/span><\/a><\/div><div class=\"w-separator size_medium\"><\/div><div class=\"w-image style_outlined align_center\"><a title=\"Open-air Museum\" href=\"https:\/\/www.museonove.it\/en\/pages\/museo-diffuso-nove\/\" aria-label=\"Museo-Diffuso2\" class=\"w-image-h\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1202\" height=\"620\" src=\"https:\/\/www.museonove.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Museo-Diffuso2.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.museonove.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Museo-Diffuso2.jpg 1202w, https:\/\/www.museonove.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Museo-Diffuso2-300x155.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.museonove.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Museo-Diffuso2-1024x528.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1202px) 100vw, 1202px\" \/><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Premiata Fabbrica Ceramiche Artistiche Antonio Zen e Figlio La manifattura \u201cG.B.
