AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
For sale: a unique and highly collectible piece of Italian art history. This beautiful, framed bronze relief shows a modernist, stylized depiction of two embracing figures. It was made by the renowned Italian sculptor Nino Beghelli from Bologna.
This specific object has a fascinating provenance. According to the original documentation on the reverse side, the bronze was cast on commission for the Circolo La Fattoria cultural center in Bologna. It is part of a very exclusive, numbered series of only 10 pieces.
In 2001 this rare work of art was chosen by the municipality of Ostra to serve as the official prize for the "Primo Incontro Internazionale Giovani Pianisti" (an international competition for young pianists). The plaque was professionally framed at the time by the prestigious framers Angelini Cornici in the nearby Senigallia.
Specifications:
• Artist: Nino Beghelli (Bologna)
• Material: Solid patinated bronze, mounted on red velvet in a gold-colored wooden frame
• Edition: Limited series of only 10 pieces
• Condition: Excellent vintage condition, fully original with the documentation and the framers’ stickers still on the back
• Frame dimensions: About 22x16 cm (overall object)
A unique item for collectors of modern bronze sculpture, Italian art, or music-historical memorabilia.
