Sale room notice
Please note that the attribution of the present lot should read 'Fidele Fischetti (Naples 1732-1792)' and not as stated in the catalogue. It was probably painted around 1780 at the time he was working at the Royal Palace of Casserta, as well as a number of important decorative schemes in other notable Neapolitan palaces (see N. Spinosa, Pittura napoletana dal rococò al classicismo, Naples 1993, figs. 272-3 and 278-95).
