Catalogue Note
Ce projet est influencé par un monument romain en marbre connu sous le nom des Grâces Borghèse, aujourd'hui dans les collections du musée du Louvre à Paris. Ce décor fut également utlisé par l'atelier des Valadier pour un chandelier illustré dans A. Gonzalez-Palacios, L'Oro di Valadier, 1997, page 203.
