Dante Carpigiani - Sculpture

Dante Carpigiani, sculptor and painter (Mirandola 1921 - Bologna 2012). Full professor for several years at the Academy of Fine Arts in Bologna. A silent artist, but not his works. He directed his attention and his studies mainly toward sacred art. His works, especially bronzes and terracottas, have found a home in many churches and several works are visible at the Certosa of Bologna. Here presented is a work that leaves one speechless: a plaster, probably a preparatory piece for a subsequent bronze never realized. It may seem like an juxtaposition, but I would say better an evolution, of the Maria di Cleofa from The Lamentation by Niccolò dell'Arca on which the Master Carpigiani must have reflected quite a bit. An evolution, yes, but with the signature and the silence proper to Carpigiani where the drama of dell'Arca almost turns into a calm resignation: in silence. In good condition, as shown by the photographic gallery. It measures about 70x140x50 cm with a weight of more than 30 kg. In the sale, the wooden studio pedestal is included. Shipping will necessarily be on a pallet, and the costs include the charges for all the material necessary to guarantee maximum safety. Assistance is guaranteed until delivery of the goods.
