About the Item

Il Domatore di Cavalli (The Tamer of Horses) is an original watercolor drawing on paper (Fabriano watermarked paper), realized around the 1960s by the great Italian artist and journalist, Mino Maccari (Siena, 1898 - 1989),. Signed in pencil on the lower right margin. With the incredible satiric touch and the talented touch of the illustrator of Il Selvaggio, this contemporray artwork depicts a horse tramer training three horses with his whips. In excellent condition. This original Maccari’s drawing, with his fluid line and his synthetic shapes, surely could enrich your private collectiuon with a Italian satiric touch and elegance! Mino Maccari (Siena, 1898 – Rome, 1989) Mino Maccari was a popular Italian painter and engraver with a caustic personality, called in 1924 by Angiolo Bencini to collaborate as illustrator for the magazine Il Selvaggio, an admittedly intransigent fascist, revolutionary and anti-bourgeois magazine. Here Maccari published his first engravings. and after he took over the direction of the Savage which he held until 1942. In 1959, he became the director of the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome; in 1963, he won Antonio Feltrinelli's prize for painting and became president of the San Luca Academy in 1962. In the same year of one of the biggest Italian academic honor, Maccari managed to obtain a personal exhibition at Gallery 63 in New York. His production of drawings, watercolors, tempera, lithographs etc. is exhausted, sometimes in collaboration with prestigious publishing houses (Strapaese, Il selvaggio), of satirical, political or erotic subject matters.
