Watch List notes:

His works, such as Orpheus and Eurydice (1776), were added by Venetian patricians in order. In 1779 Canova moved to Rome, where he lived as a guest of the Venetian ambassador. The successful artist returned after the occupation of Rome by French troops in 1798 in his homeland. As superintendent of the art treasures of the Papal States (since 1802) he was responsible in 1815 for the return of the stolen art by Napoleon. High Relief, cleaned, but Extremely fine details, slight scratch to building and marks in fields, by A.Fabbris, very scarce.
