Portraiture is, first and foremost, a description of the subject depicted, an attempt to capture their physiognomy and individual characteristics truthfully and naturally. With the progressive evolution of artistic research, the physiognomic description of the subject has also been accompanied by a psychological one. Therefore, over the centuries, portraiture has also become a means of introspective investigation of the subject, their character, and their state of mind.

After a brief trip to Paris, in 1929 he settled in Milan, where he came into contact with the Milanese avant-garde and received his first commission from the Catholic University in 1932. Having won the competition for the three bronze doors of St. Peter's in 1950, along with Biagini and Crocetti, in 1954 he was appointed an Academician of San Luca; in the same year he resigned from the chair of sculpture at Brera, which he had held since 1941, and began teaching at the International Academy of Salzburg (1954–60), where he met O. Kokoschka and I. Schabel, his future companion and inspiration. In 1969 he inaugurated the Amici di Manzù collection in Ardea, where he had his studio and home, donated to the Italian state in 1981.\n\u003ch2 class=\"sc-paragraph\"\u003e \u003cspan id=\"Opere\" class=\"mw-headline\"\u003eWORKS\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\r \nIn the 1930s, particularly after 1934, M. turned to intimate subjects which, while harking back to the plastic impressionism of M. Rosso, also demonstrate a careful meditation on the values ​​of ancient sculpture. Thus, as evidence of a high religious inspiration and of his profound anti-fascist political commitment, the series of \u003ci\u003eDepositions\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eCrucifixions\u003c\/i\u003e (1940-43) were born, followed by the series of \u003ci\u003eCardinals\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eBishops\u003c\/i\u003e and numerous portraits, full of touching humanity. Widely recognized internationally, in the 1950s M. obtained prestigious public commissions and executed the door of the Salzburg Cathedral (1955-58, focused on the theme of love), which attests to a maturity and expressive happiness also found in his rich and constant graphic production and which anticipates, in the simplification of the compositional schemes and in the rigorous design research, solutions that would characterize the subsequent doors of the Vatican. Engaged in a series of commissions for John XXIII, between 1959 and 1964, M. completed the famous Door of Death for St. Peter's Basilica, which testifies, through a tense and dramatic narrative, to his civic commitment and profound faith in man's ultimate redemption. In 1969, M. completed the Door of Peace and War for the church of Saint Laurenz in Rotterdam (the theme of which would inspire him in 1972 for the relief of the European Community building in Luxembourg and again in 1977 for the monument to the Partisan in Bergamo).","brand":"VITTI FRANCESCO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56218808746370,"sku":"VIFRA001","price":2500.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/braca-1.jpg?v=1768476916"},{"product_id":"giacomo-manzu-penelope","title":"Giacomo Manzù - Penelope","description":"","brand":"Rinaldi Maria Teresa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56218828276098,"sku":"MRIN0023","price":500.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/Manzu-Penelope.jpg?v=1768477028"},{"product_id":"giacomo-manzu-i-cinque-patrioti-di-spagna","title":"Giacomo Manzù - The Five Patriots of Spain","description":"","brand":"Centore Nicole","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56219207696770,"sku":"NCEN001","price":800.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/IMG_4340.jpg?v=1768478864"}],"url":"https:\/\/venderequadri.it\/en\/collections\/giacomo-manzu.oembed","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
