About the Item

A flower shoots outward from a tapered stem, one generous curl of iron forms an imitation of a leaf. With the Fior di Loto, Salvino Marsura reduces plant form to its purest geometry. The piece is signed, in good condition, with some patination true to its age, with a couple of minor scuffs at the side of the sculpture’s base. 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 art and furniture 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.
