Mamma e' Funtana









Mamma'e Funtana (aka Maria Farranca, Maria Abbranca, Mamma e su Putzu, Maria Franca e' Erru, Maria Mangrofa, Strega e' Funtana, Maria Pettinedda) is a creature found in Sardinian folklore,
when I was a child my mom used to tell me scary stories about her.
She lives in a well, she's a really ugly old lady with long nails to seize children.
I've done this drawing for Contus Antigus, 11 illustrators from my island for 11 tales of the Sardinian tradition.
