About the Item

Hairpin bends, triangular points or a silhouetted landscape form a sculptural back to this iron Picasso I chair, lending it a striking, elongated profile. The piece is in good condition, featuring patination true to its 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 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. H116 W42 D44cm
