The artwork in the Sicilian culture

By the Governance of Sicilian Artisan Foundation

The Trinacria is the symbol of Sicily. It is a Gorgon (mythological monster that petrified with the look whoever observed it) with three legs and typically, here in Sicily, spigacrinita, or with ears of corn instead of hair. The island, in fact, was one of the granaries of ancient Rome (which conquered Sicily in the third century BC). The three legs of Trinacria also recall the shape of Sicily, triangular.
