An identical mirror (see illustration opposite), probably the pair to it, in the collections of the Museo Civico of Turin is illustrated in A. Pedrini, Il Mobilio, Gli ambienti e decorazioni nei secoli XVII e XVIII in Piemonte, 1967, fig. 127, p. 83. Another related overmantel mirror is hung in the Salone d'Onore of Palazzo Carignano, Turin.
