This portrait of Giacomettis brother Diego was made from memory. Like many of the portrait busts from the last few years of Giacomettis life, it shows a heightened interest in the eyes of the subject, creating a gaze that is penetratingly intense. If I can hold the look in the eyes, everything else follows, Giacometti explained. Chiavenna was the small Italian town in which the Sculptures were cast. This Sculpture will surely be a conversation piece as you and others draw upon your own emotional responses and ideas about the art. It is set on a rectangular Brown marble base and it was crafted using the lost wax method. Bronze Dimensions with Marble Base: Height 16 X Width 5 inches. Weight: 14 LBS.
