Servi Muti is one of several sculpture and paintings by Italian artist Roberto Barni which depicts blindfolded men working together to carry large flat objects.
In this version of Servi Muti a pair of roughly cast, bronze, life size, blindfolded, men stand opposite each other on 4' square tiled bases. They are lifting a large, flat, bronze, 4' by 10' rectangular object. The men are wearing identical clothing - an open jacket and trousers. Both are facing skyward and with the object resting on their upright fingers.
A bronze plaque in front of the sculpture is inscribed:
SERVI MUTI
