Alberto Ricci was a Roman artist.
He specialized in figurave sculpture with particular interest in the study of movement.

Between 1929 and 1930, he stayed around Parma, where he studied Mantegna, Parmigianino, and Correggio

He created some sixty posters with advertising or political subjects. These included the famous calendar for the Cooperative Union of Milan in 1917 and many theater bills and postcards.

A Roman-school painter, Zingarini was born in Rome on January 30, 1878, and died there on November 5, 1944

Even after his death, his work became a touchstone for young Roman artists and in 1930, a large exhibition was organized by Pier Maria Bardi at the Galleria di Roma.

He was a truly great figure at the forefront of the revival of 20th-century sculpture. 

Cagnaccio delineates the sculptural form with clarity with an energy that verges on surreal hallucinations,  using color that is usually hard and glass-like, suggesting the Murano painters of the 15th century. 

His first official accolade as an artist came in 1953 when he won the Faenza Prize in the 11th National Ceramic Competition.
