Italy, 1923, Giannino Castiglioni, sculptor (1884–1923), photo album with an autographed dedication regarding the decorations of the Parliament Palace in Montevideo Dimensions: 21.5 x 12.5 cm "Sculptures from the Exterior Decoration of the Uruguayan Parliament Building. Sculptor: Giannino Castiglioni." Pressed cardboard album with the cover finely decorated in ink both inside and out. The spine is covered in parchment paper. It was donated by the famous sculptor Giannino Castiglioni to a Milanese noblewoman, as evidenced by the handwritten dedication dated December 30, 1923. Inside are 26 photographs (6.5 x 8.5 cm) featuring beautiful details of the sculptures that the Lombard sculptor created for the friezes on the façade of the Uruguayan Parliament. Some photographs show a smiling and pleased Castiglioni and his collaborators perched atop the stone giants. The album is in excellent condition, except for a couple of minor tears. This is a unique item, likely created by the artist himself and later given as a gift.
