Matita misure: mm 296 x 417 Pittore e disegnatore italiano. Mario è il quinto dei fratelli Maserati (Carlo, Bindo, Ernesto, Alfieri, Mario, Ettore), e anche l’unico ad non occuparsi di meccanica. Contribuisce tuttavia al progetto dell'omonima casa automobilistica disegnando il famoso logo del tridente prendendo spunto dalla nota statua di Nettuno di Giambologna in piazza Maggiore a Bologna. Sin da giovanissimo inizia a disegnare frequentando gli ambienti artistici a lui vicini e studiando le pitture di Pellizza da Volpedo, Giovanni Segantini, Paul Cézanne e dei pittori francesi. Frequenta l’Accademia di Brera, allievo di Giuseppe Mentessi e Cesare Tallone, interrompe gli studi a causa della guerra dalla quale tornerà ferito, e si diploma nel 1919. Successivamente con la famiglia si trasferisce a Bologna dove ha uno studio nell'officina del fratello. A partire dagli anni '20 torna a dividersi fra Milano dove abita e la sua amata Voghera dove aprirà uno studio e dove insegna arti applicate. Molti sue opere sono andate distrutte nel bombardamento dello studio nel 1946, restano molti affreschi in chiese ed edifici pubblici. Le sue rappresentazioni spaziano dalla "rigidità" accademica alle nuove tendenze metafisiche e divisioniste, la sua ricerca si concentra soprattutto dal punto di vista cromatico. In questo foglio intenso e profondo il tratto marcato della grafite steso su una carta cerulea conferisce drammaticità alla composizione. In un paesaggio spoglio, appena accennati due alberi sterzati dal vento sulla sinistra, assistiamo ad una sorte di "parata della Morte". La Morte è uno scheletro, sopra un cavallo enorme ma magro e sfiancato, regge l'asta di una bandiera nera mossa dal vento. Ai suoi fianchi un fiume di persone, di derelitti, avanza dal fondo della scena. Sulla destra uomini stanchi, raffreddati, spaventati, indossano lo stesso abito che pare una tuta da lavoro, camminano inermi, c'è chi si copre il volto forse per il vento, forse per la disperazione, e chi stringe al petto le braccia. Sulla sinistra procedono le donne nei loro lunghi abiti, affrante, doloranti, la prima con un bambino in braccio. Il primo piano è occupato dal corpo esanime di un uomo a terra su cui è riversa una donna disperata. In basso a destra, a matita, firma e data. Il soggetto potrebbe rientrare nel genere che raffigura soggetti di ispirazione sociale, di denuncia della condizione operaia o della miseria di certe classi sociali. Mario potrebbe essersi ispirato a qualche sciopero o manifestazione visto frequentando il mondo dell'industria meccanica o forse propone una riflessione sugli orrori che avrebbe da lì a poco mostrato il primo conflitto mondiale. La composizione riporta alla mente il dipinto di Pellizza da Volpedo il Quarto Stato. Buono stato di conservazione, eccetto qualche piega verticale. Si notino fori ai quattro angoli del foglio per un precedente esposizione senza cornice. Al verso, a matita e sanguigna, viene realizzato uno studio per le gambe di un uomo disteso a terra.

réf. 11871On letterhead of The Deanery Norwich. 9 January 1873. 4pp. 12mo. 51 lines of text. Bifolium. On aged paper. The context is explained by the fact that until 1927 one canonry in the cathedral establishment of Norwich was attached to the Mastership of St. Catharine's College. The letter begins: 'I have requested the Master of Catherine sic Charles Kirkby Robinson to read you two letters from Canon Nisbet which will show you how very litle prospect there is of our getting permission from the Ecclesiastical Commissioners to spend any part of the money gained by our sale of the Barracks in the improvement of our Canonry Houses. This creates an embarrassment; for the question arises how we shall raise the money required for the purchase of the remainder of Mrs. Morse's lease unless we come upon the Barrack money.' Goulburn now describes how he and 'Heaviside' have pressed the Master to determine 'whether he will take Mrs. Morse's house; for if he declines to do so that will make the question still more embarrassing since in that case the £500 set apart for the removal of his present House and the making good the cloister will of course not be available. And I have further expressed the hope that he will be able to see his way to a move on the public grounds of freeing our beautiful Cloister from its present disfigurement. As soon as he has made up his mind I shall crave your kind permission to call a Chapter at your rooms.' He thanks him for his 'most interesting and if I may so say edifying Preface to the Catalogue - made doubly or trebly valuable by your kind inscription therein. I cannot say how highly I value the possession of such a document.' He will send 'the Bishop of Derry's Sermon': 'He could not have said any thing wh. wd. tell more in a place like this where you are so much revered and loved.' He complains of his duties 'as Editor to correct the press of these Sermons; and if another man's proofs always give one a little trouble much more do an Irishman's. And my good friend tho' very brilliant as an orator is very Hibernian.' On letterhead of The Deanery, Norwich. 9 January 1873. unknown
