Artist Mauro Perucchetti

The man behind the "Jelly Babies"

"The Jelly Babies have attracted more attention than Perucchetti ever imagined. They have been exhibited in several prominent locations around the world, including in front of the Louvre, the Marble Arch, the Wellcome Collection, and the Royal Academy of Arts in London.

In late September 2023, his iconic Jelly Baby Family 1.3 went under the hammer at Phillips New Now, New York, selling for $228,600.00, five times the original estimated selling price."
