Descrizione
The fascination that coral has always held for the human imagination stems essentially from its metamorphic nature.
This mysterious origin inspired a wealth of myths and beliefs claiming that coral could dispel evil and misfortune and bring luck and well-being.
In the classical world, coral was associated with the blood of Medusa, a myth of transformation retold by Ovid: “tender and floating in the water, which hardens in the air and becomes stone”.
The Sicilian court was a favoured centre for collections of extraordinary objects. Frederick II was the first to show interest; these collections represented the prince’s wealth and power.
The strategic location of the island made Sicily a territory dedicated to the trading practice of luxury products such as precious fabrics, wine, oil, gems and coral.
