 INTRODUCTION

Antonietta Raphaël (1895 – 5

September 1975) was an Italian
sculptor and painter of Jewish
heritage and Lithuanian birth, who
founded the Scuola Romana (Roman
School) movement together with her
husband Mario Mafai.

She was an artist characterised by a

profound anti-academic conviction,
also affirmed by her sculptures
which, especially after World War II,
dominated her output.

They highlighted the tender and

vibrant carnality present in stone,
with works such as Miriam
dormiente (Sleeping Miriam) and
Nemesis.
