Giorgio de Chirico created several sculptures in terracotta and bronze. From these works, in the years between 1988 and 1991, commissioned and authorized by Isabella De Chirico and Lisa Sotilis and on the occasion of the centenary of his death, several bronzes were created. These were produced by the Bonvicini Foundry in Verona with a print run of 9 copies of which 7 numbered from I/VII plus two artist's proofs E/A I/II E/A II/II and a non-commercial non-numbered proof to be allocated to the FOUNDATION GIORGIO AND ISA DE CHIRICO. Of this creation, 4 sculptures from an important South Tyrolean collection are presented: Penelope and Telemachus, Colonial Mannequins, Orpheus, Bucephalus
