Marino Marini — Marino to Stravinsky, 1972
An exceptional complete portfolio by Marino Marini, created in 1972 as a lyrical tribute to Igor Stravinsky.
Marino to Stravinsky consists of ten original etchings and aquatints, each hand-signed and numbered by the artist, preserved in the original publisher’s case.
Executed in editions of only 75 impressions, the series reflects Marini’s unmistakable visual language: dynamic compositions, expressive gestures, and a refined balance between abstraction and poetic symbolism.
The portfolio reveals a profound dialogue between visual art and music, translating rhythm, movement, and emotional intensity into richly textured graphic works.
The suite includes:
Gioco Perfetto
Fondale
La caduta dell’angelo
Immaginazione
La Ribalta
Il Grido
Trovatore
Scomposizione
I Giochi
Senso Lirico
Each print bears the artist’s signature and edition number, together with the embossed blind stamp of the renowned printer Il Cigno Stamperia d’Arte. The works combine drypoint, etching, and multi-color aquatint techniques, demonstrating Marini’s extraordinary mastery of printmaking.
A rare and highly collectible complete portfolio, Marino to Stravinsky represents an important late graphic work by one of the most influential Italian artists of the 20th century, ideal for collectors seeking museum-quality editions with strong historical and artistic significance.
