Biography:

Alfredo Biagini was an Italian sculptor, ceramist, and interior decorator born in Rome on February 20, 1886 and died in the same city on July 14, 1952. After enrolling in the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome in 1905, where he attended courses in architecture and sculpture, he moved to Paris to study anatomy. He frequently traveled between the two cities, but it was at Villa Strohl-Fern in Rome where he solidified his artistic career. Here, he exhibited animalier works and focused on the animalier theme, characterizing his sculptures with essential lines and unique decorations. During the interwar period, he distinguished himself for his production of wrought iron works with Art Deco style and for his ceramic works. In the 1930s, he worked on monuments and religious decorations, winning numerous awards and accolades for his work. Biagini's sculptures are known for their dynamic and expressive qualities, and his work has been exhibited in galleries and museums throughout Italy and Europe.
