About the Item

Bronzetto on onyx base depicting a nude female figure, standing with her hair loose and looking skyward, leaning on a draped support. The very sensual pose and figure seem to contrast with the pose of the hands and the gaze, which almost recall a mystical vision. is signed on the bronze base, left, "G. Scapolla." The work, on stylistic grounds, can be attributed to the mid-20th century. The artist Giovanni Scapolla, a Lombard sculptor born in Pavia, was very active in the twentieth century, especially in the northern Italian area, receiving many public commissions, both civil (the "monument to the fallen fascists" and "the washerwoman" on the old bridge over the Ticino River, both in Pavia) and religious (for example, in the basilica of San Piero in Ciel d'oro in Pavia).

Italian Bronze Sculpture of Nude Woman, Mid 20th Century
Located in Beachwood, OH
Mario Spampinato (Italian 1912–2000) Nude Bronze Signed on base 17.5 in. h. x 5.75 in. w. x 6 in. d. The artist was born, raised and trained in Italy. During one of his exhibits (at San Marcos in Rome) the Director of a New York Gallery asked him to come to New York to work for him. The American Consul, before issuing his visa, asked Spampinato to create a bust of him. In exchange, the Consul paid for his passage on the boat to New York. In New York, he worked with his brother Clemente Spampinato who is a well known sculptor as well. After moving to Chicago in 1954, he discovered that there was no foundry in the Midwest that could cast his bronzes. So, he opened his own foundry called the Spampinato Art Foundry, casting in the lost wax process. He also started his own private school (Spampinato Art Workshop, Ltd) and did some teaching at the University of Chicago and conducted seminars at Lawrence University in Kansas. Many of his own works are pictured and cataloged in Volumes 2 & 3 of Bronzes: Sculptors and Founders, 1800-1930 by Harold Berman. Between 1959 and 1967, Spampinato recast a number of Charles M Russell...
