Ezio Ceccarelli (1865 - 1927), "Born in Montecatini Val di Cecina, was an Italian sculptor who began his apprenticeship at the Rivalta and Bortone Academy in Florence, a city he was particularly fond of, before becoming a professor himself at the School of Industrial Art in Volterra. In addition to his teaching activities, he founded a sculpture studio in Florence, welcoming both students and collaborators. Thanks to this studio and the recognition it brought, he participated in numerous competitions, including that of the statue of King Carlo Alberto in Rome, won the first Curlendese prize in Bologna in 1899 and, above all, the gold medal for his statue Ecce Homo at the Gregorian competition in Rome. His virtuosity and fame spread widely, thanks to his participation in numerous international competitions, including those in Liège, Copenhagen and Athens. He represented Italy at the Universal Exhibition in Paris, an experience he repeated in 1904. Building on this success, he sculpted or designed several civil sculptures for Italian cities, including a Garibaldi for Massa in 1905, a Carlo Montanari for Verona and a Christopher Columbus for La Plata in South America."
