In 1992 Franco Fiabane created for the archpriestal church of Santa Maria Assunta in Lentiai a bronze portal in three registers: at the bottom the Horsemen of the Apocalypse evoke the unease of life; in the center a ring of adolescents, whose hands become the handles of the portal, transforms private memory into a collective message of friendship and hope; at the top the resurrection of Lazarus and the sacrifice of Abraham and Isaac, illuminated by a divine light, draw the gaze toward the eternal. Between sculptural vigor and a narrative impulse, the work—commissioned in memory of the young Cesare Grigoletto—unites tradition and spirituality in a seal of Christian consolation.
In 1992 Franco Fiabane created a three-tiered bronze portal for the archpriestal church of Santa Maria Assunta in Lentiai: at the bottom the Horsemen of the Apocalypse evoke life's anxieties; in the middle a ring of adolescents, whose hands become the portal's handles, transforms private memory into a collective message of friendship and hope; at the top the resurrection of Lazarus and the sacrifice of Abraham and Isaac, bathed in divine light, draw the gaze toward the eternal. Between sculptural strength and narrative intent, the work, commissioned in memory of the young Cesare Grigoletto, unites tradition and spirituality in a comforting Christian testament.
