— The artwork captures the instant of spiritual awakening that lies beyond comprehension. Two figures, intertwined in a dance of movement and geometry, are illuminated by flashes of color — red for passion, blue for faith, violet for mystery. Marini’s etched lines, delicate yet resolute, guide the viewer through a drama suspended between heaven and earth.
The «miracle» of the title is not a divine event, but the human capacity for resilience and wonder. The horse, rearing and tense, mirrors the energy of the figure above, whose gesture suggests both exultation and surrender. Here, Marini fuses the ancient symbolism of the equestrian with the language of modern abstraction, creating an image that vibrates with universal emotion. Miracolo is less a depiction than a revelation — a pulse of transcendence captured in form.
Marino Marini is best known for his dynamic equestrian sculptures — stylized representations of horse and rider that evolved from classical harmony into increasingly dramatic and expressive forms.
