Alfredo Biagini Biography

Alfredo Biagini was an Italian sculptor, ceramist, and interior decorator born in Rome on February 20, 1886 and died in the same city on July 14, 1952. After enrolling in the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome in 1905, where he attended courses in architecture and sculpture, he moved to Paris to study anatomy. He frequently traveled between the two cities, but it was at Villa Strohl-Fern in Rome where he solidified his artistic career.
Here, he exhibited animalier works and focused on the animalier theme, characterizing his sculptures with essential lines and unique decorations. During the interwar period, he distinguished himself for his production of wrought iron works with Art Deco style and for his ceramic works.
In the 1930s, he worked on monuments and religious decorations, winning a significant competition for the decoration of the bronze door of St. Peter's Basilica in the Vatican together with Giacomo Manzù, which sadly he could not complete due to his premature death. Biagini participated in numerous national and international exhibitions throughout his career and is known for his animalier works and his production of decorative works inspired by classical and Art Deco styles.
