Do You Own a Work by Mitoraj?

I buy directly from private owners — no middlemen, no auction fees, complete discretion.

What Affects the Price of a Mitoraj Bronze?

Several factors determine the value of any Mitoraj bronze on the open market. Edition size is the most significant: an edition of 250 is inherently rarer than one of 1500, and prices reflect this. Condition matters considerably — surface abrasions, repairs, and damage to the patina all reduce value. Provenance helps but is rarely decisive for multiples. Base completeness — the original travertine, marble, or wooden base — adds meaningful value and its absence is always noted in auction catalogue

How to Identify Authentic Mitoraj Bronzes

The authentication of Mitoraj bronzes rests on several consistent physical features. The signature is always incised (cut into the metal) rather than cast with it. On desktop-scale editions (18–40 cm), it appears at the base of the neck or on the lower front face of the torso: MITORAJ in capitals. On some early works, the signature reads igor mitoraj in lowercase — consistent with the pre-1985 period. The edition number is stamped or incised on the reverse, in the format n/total (e.g. 182/250 ).

What Happens After You Contact Me

The process is simple. You send me a photograph — ideally showing the front, reverse, and any signature or edition number. I respond the same day with an honest assessment: what I believe the work to be, what it is worth in the current market, and — if you wish — what I would pay for it privately. There is no pressure, no obligation, and no further contact unless you choose to proceed. If we agree on a price, payment is made promptly and the transaction is handled with complete discretion.

Mitoraj Bronze Sculptures — What I Seek

I am a private collector based in Warsaw, Poland, actively seeking original bronze sculptures by Igor Mitoraj (1944–2014). I am interested in all editions, sizes and periods — from early table-top bronzes to monumental outdoor works.

Works of Particular Interest

Asclépios — the winged healer, one of Mitoraj's most enduring subjects
Perseus — helmeted, fragmented, commanding
Tindaro — the cracked mask, icon of Mitoraj's aesthetic
Eros Bendato — bandaged, serene, internationally recognised
Ikaro Alato — the fallen Icarus, armless and wingless
Centurione — the Roman soldier, large format preferred
Any bronze with certificate of authenticity from Pietrasanta foundry

About Mitoraj Bronzes

Cast predominantly at the Fonderia Mariani in Pietrasanta, Tuscany — the same foundry used by Henry Moore and Fernando Botero — Mitoraj's bronzes are distinguished by their rich natural patinas, classical proportions and deliberate fragmentation. Editions typically range from 1 to 9 casts, with artist's proofs commanding premium prices at auction.

Authentication Note

Verify all Mitoraj bronzes through foundry documentation and certificate of authenticity. Primary casting houses include Fonderia d'Arte Battaglia (Italy) and Susse Fondeur (France). Examine patina consistency, signature placement on base, and edition numbering. Consult the Mitoraj estate archives or recognized specialists for questionable attributions before acquisition.
