Description
A compelling limited edition lithograph by Marino Marini, titled Thomas Mann, printed in 1968 by the Dietz Workshop, Germany. Marini, one of the leading figures of modern Italian art, is known for his expressive, sculptural approach to form-qualities that translate powerfully into his graphic works.
Printed on heavy woven paper, this lithograph is part of a limited edition of 500, with this example numbered 54, adding to its collectible appeal. The work is signed in the matrix (Marino) and reflects Marini's distinctive ability to merge figurative subject matter with abstract intensity, creating a composition that feels both grounded and dynamic.
This edition carries additional significance, as the printing plates were destroyed after production, ensuring the integrity and finality of the edition. Issued as a special edition for the United States, Canada, Australia, and Great Britain, it holds both international and historical relevance within the mid-century modern print market.
Balanced in scale and presence (40.4 x 50.8 cm), the composition offers strong visual impact while maintaining the refined, expressive qualities that define Marini's work.
