Subject: Painting I was asking you
about
Hello again from Sandra in carrel 323!
I am trying to find a color photograph/jpg/whatever of the
following painting:
Artist's (Austrian) name is *Anton von Maron
Date is c. *1765-7
The portrait is of *Bartolomeo Cavaceppi (a Roman sculptor
who was a
friend of his)
The artist Maron was famous
for doing a portrait of J.
Winckelmann- the one of Winkc. in a red, fur lined robe. I am working on
Cavaceppi, but am now thinking the two works were done in the same year and
may have been intended as pendants. The Wincklemann image I've found-
but the Cavaceppi one only in blurry black and white. The original is
supposed to be in the Galleria Palazzo Carpegna,
current location of the
it, e-mailed, no nothing. There may be a copy in the Staatliche
museum in
Inv. Nr. KdZ 9402 . If anyone knows of any portaits of B. Cavaceppi, I'd
love to know about them.
Thanks ever so much, and do pop in whenever you need some junk food,
chances are, I'll have some in here! Sandra
