This bronze belonged to my late father in law. He was an Austrian man who moved to South Africa in the mid 1980`s
Decimo Passani , or Decio (Carrara, 21 August 1884 - Florence, 30 October 1952), was an Italian sculptor.
Brother of Italo Amerigo Passani, he was a self-taught sculptor, helped by his older brother who was studying at the Academy of Fine Arts in Florence. Thanks to the favorable climate for young artists in the first forty years of the twentieth century, he participated in numerous exhibitions on a regular basis, from 1907 to 1940.
He was the author of the monument to the fallen of Florence-Santo Spirito, in Piazza Santo Spirito and of numerous monuments and tombstones for the Florentine cemeteries of Trespiano and the Porte Sante.
