MARIO(portrait)- bronze sculpture by Roberto Tagliazucchi

"Mario" by Roberto Tagliazucchi is a vivid portrait of expressiveness and refined technique. The golden patina wraps the face in a light that emphasizes each line and shadow, revealing a sharp observation of human character. This work challenges the ephemeral nature of the portrait with an almost eternal presence, suspended in a timeless moment. The intensity of the gaze and the detail of the features are captured with a mastery that conveys the inner essence of the subject, an embodiment of Tagliazucchi's artistic vision and his ongoing dialogue with the material. In "Mario", the artist brings to light not just the physiognomy but the very soul, with a sculpture that transcends simple representation to become a narrative of life and complexity.
