Autoritratto di Amos Cassioli

The sculpture was installed in 1920 and represents a heartfelt and personal tribute: it was created by Amos Cassioli’s son, Giuseppe Cassioli, himself a renowned artist, who wished to honor his father’s memory.

The bust, set atop a marble pedestal, stands out for its expressive intensity and refined execution—qualities that reflect not only Giuseppe’s sculptural skill but also the deep emotional bond with his father.
