Seated Woman is clearly a portrait of a specific subject that shows a certain affinity with the Italian culture of the 20s, namely that of Valori Plastici. If, on the one hand, the play on proportions, with a very small head, already heralds the postwar works, on the other, the artist still treats the figure as a plastic system endowed with inner gravity, unlike his subsequent works, which will be characterized by the sculpture’s detachment from the block, the monolith, as a phenomenological starting point.
