ATTILIO PICCIRILLI
THE ITALIAN FACTOR

We are presently supporting the efforts of the Heritage Film Project to produce a one-hour documentary film about the contributions of Italian artisans and sculptors to the American Renaissance. The film focuses primarily on the accomplishments of the Piccirilli, a family of talented.

Tuscan sculptors. The Piccirilli carved hundreds of public monuments, including the seated Lincoln at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C.
