This contemporary original print representing a surreal scene is realized with a full mastery of the artistic medium and is in excellent conditions: as good as new. Marcello Tommasi (Pietrasanta, 1928 - Lido di Camaiore, 2008) The Italian sculptor and painter, Marcello Tommasi, active mainly in Florence, Paris and Pietrasanta, is considered ''the symbolic heir of fifteenth-century Neoplatonism''. Since he was a child he breathes the air of art because he was the son of the sculptor Leone Tommasi and brother of the famous painter Riccardo Tommasi Ferroni. Between 1948 and 1958 he attended Pietro Annigoni's studio, drawing, painting and getting ready for sculpture. Master of figurative art, he worked a lot both in the field of sacred art and in secular art, often taking inspiration from the Greek myths. His enormous production includes hundreds of works including drawings, sketches, sculptures, paintings and frescoes. Today his works are kept in the Cabinet of Drawings and Prints in the Uffizi, in the National Museum of Warsaw, in the modern art galleries of Barcelona, Malaga, Piacenza and the Vatican; at the Azorin Museum of Monóvar and at the Museo Birthplace of Michelangelo Buonarroti of Caprese Michelangelo; at the National Library of Paris, at the University of Pisa and at the Institute of Art History of the University of Florence.
