Muravera, a large mural in honor of Donna Francesca Sanna Sulis
The tribute to the entrepreneur who in 1700 started a thriving cultivation of silkwormsTribute to Donna Francesca Sanna Sulis , the entrepreneur of the 1700s who helped raise awareness of Muravera . Representing her in a mural in front of the museum dedicated to her is the Sarrabese master Stefano Pani.
«I did various searches – explains Pani – but there is nowhere a true and proper portrait of this great woman . I therefore relied on my inspiration as an artist , trying to follow the few traces that history has left us".
In the mural, which will be completed between Monday and Tuesday, Donna Francesca grapples with the cocoons of silkworms . It was she, in fact, who expanded the cultivation of mulberries and started a thriving cultivation of silkworms .
An entrepreneur who, among other things, fought to guarantee women the improvement of living conditions.
Pani is creating the impressive mural thanks to the Municipality of Muravera and the teachers' association.
