Marino Marini
Dancer II - Etching by Marino Marini - 1977

1977

About the Item

Image dimensions: 50 x 36.5 cm. Dancer II is an original contemporary artwork realized by Marino Marini in 1977. Color etching and acquatint depicting a dancer. Edited by Graphis Arte, Livorno. 90 specimen and 10 artist's proof signed by the artist. Marino Marini (1901-1980), was an Italian sculptor. He lived in Paris and Athens. Accustomed to the classical artistic tradition, he then detached from it and drew inspiration from Egyptian and Etruscan art. His research essentially explores the internal structure of form and the organization of space in plastic forms. He is best known for his figurative equestrian sculptures. He won prizes at the International Exposition of Paris in 1937 and at the Venice Biennial in 1952. Marini died on August 6, 1980, in Viareggio, Italy, and the Marino Marini Museum dedicated to his oeuvre opened in Florence in 1988. Throughout his life, he would return to the theme of a horse and rider with his arms stretched out to either side, as exemplified in his seminal work The Angel of the City (1948). He is also noted for his expressive busts featuring forlorn and abstracted faces, as well as paintings depicting his recurring horse-riding figure.

  • Restaurant in Mott Street
    By Charles Frederick William Mielatz
    Located in New Orleans, LA
    The image depicts a restaurant on New York's Mott Street with ornamental iron work on the balconies. There are six figures in the scene in various stages of contrast. Mott Street is considered the unofficial Main Street of New York's Chinatown. Ella Fitzgerald sang it best: “And tell me what street compares with Mott Street in July? Sweet pushcarts gently gliding by.” CFW Mielatz was an early influence on the drypoints and etchings of Martin Lewis. This piece was created in 1906 and it is signed in pencil. It is part of the collection of New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art C.F.W. Mielatz American, 1860-1919 Born in Bredding, Germany in 1864, Mielatz emigrated to the United States as a young boy and studied at the Chicago School of Design. Mostly self-taught, his first prints were large New England landscapes reminiscent of the painter-etcher school of American Art. Around 1890 he started to produce prints of New York City and by the time of his death, the number totaled over ninety images. He was a master technician in the field of etching, reworking many of his plates to get the exact feeling he was seeking. Mielatz was a member of the New York Etching...

  • La Colegiata Toro (Romanesque Santa Maria la Mayor/Zamora province Spain)
    By John Taylor Arms
    Located in New Orleans, LA
    John Taylor Arms created this superb architectural image of La Colegiata in 1935 in an edition of 153. It is #12 in his Spanish Churches series and is referenced as Fletcher #284. One of the most characteristic examples of transitional Romanesque architecture in Spain, the church of Santa María la Mayor is inspired by the Cathedral of Zamora, in turn inspired by the Old Cathedral of Salamanca. The tower-dome is usually listed as one of the four most typical in León together with those in the cathedrals of Salamanca, Plasencia and Zamora. The church was begun around 1170, and was finished in the mid-13th century. Two different directors of the work have been identified, according to the different types of stone used (limestone in the old sections, sandstone in the most recent ones), and by the barrel vaults...
