EN: This bronze sculpture of a reading woman stands in front of the municipal library of Caslano.
The sculpture is about one meter high and sits on a concrete base of the same height.
It was erected by the municipality to commemorate the spouses Edvige and Federico Kever, who founded a foundation that supports social and educational programs in Caslano.
There are no information about the sculpture itself, neither a title nor an artist or a date, but I have reason to believe that it was created by Adriano Bozzolo, who created a very similar bronze sculpture at the waterfront in the town center.
IT (Translated by DeepL): La scultura in bronzo di una donna che legge si trova di fronte alla biblioteca comunale di Caslano.
La scultura è alta circa un metro e poggia su una base di cemento della stessa altezza.
È stata eretta dal Comune per ricordare i coniugi Edvige e Federico Kever, che hanno fondato una fondazione che sostiene programmi sociali ed educativi a Caslano.
Non ci sono informazioni sulla scultura in sé, né un titolo, né un artista, né una data, ma ho ragione di credere che sia stata realizzata da Adriano Bozzolo, che ha realizzato una scultura in bronzo molto simile sul lungolago del centro del borgo.
