Artist context

About Pericle Fazzini

Pericle Fazzini (1913–1987) was an Italian sculptor, painter, and graphic artist recognized as one of the most important Italian sculptors of the twentieth century. Born in Grottammare on the Adriatic coast, he was the son of engraver Vittorio Fazzini and began working in his father's workshop before studying formally in Rome in the early 1930s. Fazzini developed a distinctive expressive style in bronze and mixed media, often exploring figural and religious themes. His best-known commission is the monumental bronze relief La Resurrezione, installed in the Aula Paolo VI (the papal audience hall) in Vatican City. Works by Fazzini are held in the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art in New York and Tate in London, and his career is documented in the Bénézit, Saur, and Vollmer dictionaries of artists.

Common works and media

Collectors and appraisers most frequently encounter Fazzini's small-to-mid-size bronze sculptures of human and animal figures, often with dynamic, wind-swept surfaces. His graphic output includes etchings and lithographs, and his drawings in ink and wash on paper appear at auction as well. Monumental public commissions, while significant, rarely change hands privately. Editioned bronze casts are typically numbered and may be documented in exhibition catalogues or the artist's published literature.

Market and appraisal context

Pericle Fazzini's works appear regularly at international auction, spanning bronze sculptures of various scales, paintings, drawings, and graphic editions. When considering an appraisal, key factors include the work's medium and dimensions, whether a bronze is a unique cast or part of a numbered edition, the quality of surface patina, documented provenance, and any exhibition or publication history. Large-scale bronzes and sculptural groups tend to achieve higher prices at auction than works on paper or prints. Attribution should be confirmed through catalogue references or expert opinion, as Fazzini's style has occasionally been compared to that of his cousin, the painter Lanfranco Fazzini.

Auction categories and appraisal factors

Appraisal caveats

  • Auction results vary significantly by medium, scale, date of execution, and edition status; no single price range characterizes the artist's market
  • Monumental commissions such as La Resurrezione are unique and not directly comparable to smaller gallery-scale works
