Manzù worked extensively in bronze figurative sculpture with rich patinas and shared Marini's Italian modernist tradition, creating intimate human and equestrian forms with comparable tactile surface treatment and classical sensibility.

Greco produced hand worked bronze figurative sculptures with similarly nuanced patinas and refined surface detail, rooted in the same mid twentieth century Italian sculptural tradition that emphasized expressive yet classically grounded human forms.

Richier created expressive bronze figurative sculptures in the same postwar period with similarly textured and variegated surfaces achieved through direct hand working of the material, sharing Marini's interest in raw tactile bronze patination and compact figurative presence.
