Antonio Cotigni - Untitled (Manes to the Sky)

The sculpture depicts a horse's head seen in profile, its mane billowing as if in the wind and its muzzle slightly raised. The upward gaze, combined with the tense neck, suggests an impetuous movement, almost as if translating the animal's vital energy into bronze as it neighs. The work stands out for its strong lines and taut forms. Cotigni uses a bold modeling technique, where the bronze enhances the contrasts of light and shadow, highlighting the subject's movement and vitality. The interpretation goes beyond simply reproducing the animal, but emphasizes its energy and character through a powerful rendering. Antonio Cotigni (Ficulle, 1940 – Rome) initially trained as a typographer, compositor, and engraver, but his true passion was sculpture, which he discovered while frequenting the artisan workshops of his hometown. His career brought him the attention of critics such as Argan, Servolini, and Augusto Giordano. Among his best-known works are the monument to Totò in Naples, the monument to the Hon. Aldo Moro in Latina, and the 3.30-meter-tall bronze monument to the Poor Man of Assisi, also in Latina.
