Edition of 1600

This beautiful two sided limited edition bronze sculptural plaque was created by internationally renowned sculptural master Arnaldo Pomodoro (winner of the ISC's Lifetime Achievement Award) to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the design company Tecno in Milan. The front is inscribed "1979 25 anno Tecno", bearing a sculpted T for the company's logo along with the artist's signature. The Arnaldo Pomodoro Foundation has confirmed the details of this work, informing us that it is catalogued in the artist's archives with the number M/79/2. Natural aging coloration of the bronze, but otherwise in very good vintage condition. What makes this plaque so desirable and elegant is that Pomodoro sculpted the back as exquisitely as the front. It is thus more of a sculptural plaque instead of a wall plaque.

Signature: This work features the artist's incised signature on the recto (front), the name of the foundry (s. Johnson) - the oldest Italian metal foundry, and the an inscribed numerical annotation on the side -each piece bearing a unique number- this particular sculpture featuring the incised numbers: 196/B.

Manufacturer: Arnaldo Pomodoro and Stabilimento Stefano Johnson, Milano, Italy
