ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Riccardo Secchi (1871–1938) was an Italian sculptor celebrated for his portraiture, commemorative sculptures and public monuments. Working primarily during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, he became known for his expressive and naturalistic modelling, particularly in his depictions of prominent historical and cultural figures. His works include several important public monuments in Italy, notably in Reggio Emilia, reflecting his reputation as a sculptor of considerable technical skill and artistic sensitivity. The plaster retains an attractive aged surface, with subtle variations in colour and texture that emphasise the expressive modelling.
Provenance: acquired from the family home of direct descendants of Riccardo Secchi.
