About the Item

Amanti presents two elongated figures rising from a shared base, conveying a quiet intimacy. The attenuated silhouettes of the pair evoke both tenderness and tension. The piece is in good condition, with patination consistent with age. Salvino Marsura (1938–2020) was an artisan metalworker. After learning his craft in the dynamic workshop of sculptor and “iron poet” Toni Benetton, he spent more than 60 years producing sculpture, furniture, objects and memorials in his hometown of Treviso, Italy. Marsura’s ironwork relishes in the manual aesthetic of the forge, giving voice to the raw metal and the processes of its manipulation including sweltering heat, hammering, bending and welding. His distinctive hand marries elements of brutalism and traditional decorative arts.
