Background. A statue of Dante Alighieri stands in New York City at the corner of West 63rd and Broadway. Begun in 1912, the monument was dedicated 11/5/1921. Its erection was led by Carlo Barsotti and his newspaper Il Progresso Italo-Americano. The sculptor was Ettore Ximenes (1855-1926), whom one source describes as "born in Palermo, studied in Florence, and worked out of a handsome villa in Rome, executing some 50 monuments, including several for North and South America and three in Russia." ( Lederer, All Round the Town: A Walking Guide to Outdoor Sculpture in New York City, Scribner's, 1975). Question. The foundry for the Dante monument is known to be Denigris Brothers. My question is, in which country, state, and city was, or is, the Denigris Brothers foundry situated |

Hi, american markings, I am in Brazil and found the information using Google and a lot of time searching and trying multiple keywords. I think you will be able to contact the Denigris monument company (and its various names) and ask if they are the foundry you're looking for. Denigris Monument Company: http://denigrismonumentco9149395954.worldpages-ads.com/summary_page.jsp/?sp_id=denigrismonumentco9149395954 News with Donald Denigris and other 2 links to Domenick Denigris Monuments Inc.: ://www.google.com.br/search?q=cache:oO7juyCqBxEJ:www.nynewsday.com/news/local/manhattan/ny-mem0214,0,4027637.story+%22denigris%22+monument&hl=pt-BR ://www.google.com.br/search?q=cache:LWKHSHnggpUJ:www.nysac.com/mem_info/assn_city.html+%22donald+denigris&hl=pt-BR ://www.google.com.br/search?q=cache:3yP6m2INY4MJ:www.dagonbytes.com/graveyards/listings/statepage/newyork/newyork.htm+%22+DENIGRIS+DOMENICK+&hl=pt-BR |
