Giuseppe Armani Lady with Dog Figurine 0421-F with Original Box Mint Condition

Giuseppe Armani passed away suddenly on Saturday, October 28, 2006 of a massive stroke. There were three things in life that Armani Loved: His Family, Music and Art. Giuseppe Armani Shared his love of art with us and created art for us.

In 1975, the Florence Sculture d'Arte, recognizing Armani's genius, offered him the opportunity to work exclusively for them. He would be encouraged to give free rein to his artistic muse. Giuseppe Armani accepted.

For more than 20 years Armani created masterpieces ranging from traditional Capodimonte style to more daring, contemporary, sometimes whimsical sculptures. Always, Giuseppe infused his figurines with breathtaking realism -- with a spark of life. This continues to amaze even his many admirers the world over. Giuseppe Armani described his credo this way: "Although I consider myself a direct descendant of the Renaissance heritage, I believe that an artist has to follow his own evolution and not solely be a ruminant of the past, as glorious as it may have been. An artist conducts a search that may lead him far out in exploring new areas of interest."
