Additional Details

Giacomo Manzù's attentiveness to the human form, a subject which he depicted through many media, aimed to convey a universal legibility and pathos that can be observed in all of the artist's works. Notably, in 1964 he completed the "Doors of Death" for St. Peter's Basilica in Rome.
