About the Item

Signed lower right 'Spazzali' for Luciano Spazzali (Italian, 1911-1997) and dated 1958. A complex and lyrical equestrian work by this notable Italian Modernist and exponent of Magical Realism. Luciano Spazzali first studied at the Academy of Art in Bologna from 1932 to 1937 under Giorgio Morandi. Spazzali first exhibited his work in 1951 when he was awarded both the Biennale Internazionale d’Arte in Genoa and the National Painting Prize. Over his career, Luciano Spazzali was the recipient of numerous medals, prizes and juried awards including the Marzotto prize in 1953, the Michetti prize in 1953, 1958 and 1959, and the four year Roman award stipend in 1965. We are pleased to offer this lyrical example of the artist's work.
