signed “Marino” in lower right corner: initials “E.A” in lower left corner.
13” x 11”
hello, this item is an original print by Marino Marini (1901–1980), the celebrated Italian sculptor and painter best known for his modernist depictions of horses and riders. Titled Man on Horse, this work is executed in Marini’s signature style: linear, angular forms interwoven with bold accents of color, and imbued with a sense of primal energy and symbolic abstraction. The dimensions, 13 × 11 inches, suggest a small-format etching or lithograph. The piece is signed “Marino” in the lower right and marked “E.A.” in the lower left, indicating it is an épreuve d’artiste (artist’s proof), a rare and desirable subset of any print edition.
Marini’s graphic works are highly sought after on the international market, especially when signed and designated as proofs. Auction results for comparable prints—especially from his Cavaliere series—range between USD 3,000 and 5,000 depending on size, edition, medium, and provenance.
