Sumario:Modeling teacher at São Paulo's Liceu de Artes e Ofícios between 1925 and 1941, the Italian sculptor Materno Giribaldi was one of the most expressive symbolist artists working in Brazil. His main legacy in the city of São Paulo is comprised of funerary works, including the Jafet and Rossa monuments. However, his career and body of work remain largely overlooked and underexplored by art historiography. In this paper, Giribaldi's formative years are examined, highlighting the significance of the Milanese scapigliatura movement in the emergence of symbolism in Italy, with particular attention to the influence of casalese sculptor Leonardo Bistolfi.
