From an oblong folio album, with covers and mounts from the early 19th Century, containing a large number of drawings by Zocchi. The album was taken apart and sold in 67 lots in Mrs. Doris R. C. Herbert's sale at Sotheby's in 1979. The album contained a number of notes, in different hands and of different dates, setting out the provenance of these drawings. According to the inscriptions, the drawings were commissioned by Sir Horace Mann, 1st baronet (1701-86), who was British envoy in Florence from 1740 to 1786.
