A SET OF SIX ITALIAN MID-19TH CENTURY VOLUMES OF GRAND TOUR PLASTER INTAGLIOS
Probably made by Pietro Paoletti (Rome, 1801-1847)

The Paoletti's studio was located on the Piazza di Spagna in Rome until 1847 and enjoyed an excellent reputation throughout the 'Grand Tour'.

Examples of the Paolettis' casts are conserved in the Victoria & Albert Museum, London, and the Yale Centre for British Art, New Haven, Connecticut.
