This rare vintage exhibition catalogue was published on the occasion of Mario Sironi: A Retrospective, held at Grosvenor Gallery, London, from January 30 to February 29, 1964. The catalogue features selected paintings, watercolors, and drawings by Italian modernist Mario Sironi (1885–1961), whose work is known for its brooding atmosphere, sculptural weight, and architectural solemnity.

Sironi was a central figure in early 20th-century Italian art, active as a painter, sculptor, illustrator, and designer. His compositions often featured heavy forms, muted tones, and a sense of metaphysical stillness that positioned him between Futurism and the emerging Italian modernist movement.

This is a first edition softcover catalog with 16 pages, including images of selected works and a written contribution by Pierre Rouve. A striking and historically significant reference for collectors of modernist art, European exhibition ephemera, or Italian avant-garde history.
