Lot # 24
Group - Category Art - Sculptures / Carvings / Statues
Lead Signed A. GIANNELLI Alabaster Statue, Marble Base
Description
The pieces that the factory produces, in recomposed stone, are made of alabaster and marble powder and resin. The original models of the sculptures have been made by Cav. Arnaldo Giannelli, founder of the firm. Born in Volterra, in 1907, he was a keen student of sculpture and graduated from the Royal School of Art. In 1944 he opened his own studio and produced pieces also for the Allied Forces. In 1953, he was appointed president of the Alabaster Craftsmen Guild, a position he held until 1961, with over 800 associates. Among his most famous works, we remember the bust for Dwight D Eisenhower, for which he received the American President's personal thanks. Mirko Basaldella, the famous sculptor, commissioned him to make a 3 metres high totem for the Boston University. He also made a bust of the President of Kenya, commissioned by Professor Fioravanti from Rome. For his professional achievements, he was awarded the title of "Cavaliere della Repubblica" in 1970.
