Trio 1954

"Trio" is a 1954 etching by Italian artist Marino Marini (1901-1980). The print depicts three figures arranged in a dynamic composition, their bodies rendered with simplified, geometric shapes. The use of hatching and cross-hatching in the print creates a sense of volume and depth, while the figures' elongated limbs and expressive faces convey a sense of movement and emotion. Marini's signature style is evident in this work, characterized by its bold lines, simplified forms, and exploration of the human figure. This print is a fine example of Marini's artistic mastery in capturing the essence of movement and form through the medium of etching.
