Description from the seller
EMILIO GRECO
This work focuses on the female body, which was the main theme throughout Greco's entire career. He had a unique style that combined classical harmony with contemporary sensuality, and its refined form can be seen in this work. As the title indicates, it is not a mere realistic depiction, but carries a poetic and somewhat melancholy atmosphere, as if reminiscing about past scenes or emotions.
Artist Profile:
Born in Catania, Sicily. Learned monumental sculpture and the restoration of ancient sculpture under a stonemason from the age of 13, and later acquired fundamentals at the art school in Palermo. Won the Grand Prize for Sculpture at the Venice Biennale in 1956, establishing international acclaim.
