Bust of Gigi Riva

The bust of the legendary footballer Gigi Riva is a masterpiece composed of 12,800 bricks. The creation of this work required 45 days of meticulous effort. The official unveiling took place on November 7, 2023, on the occasion of Gigi Riva’s 79th birthday, during which he personally signed the bust, making this tribute even more special. This bust represents not only technical skill but also the love and admiration for one of the greatest symbols of Italian sport.

The brick portrait of this great icon of Italian football will be displayed from June 27 to July 8, 2025, at the FCG Football Museum in Coverciano, on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of Gigi Riva’s debut with the Italian National Football Team.
