Bookseller Notes
A sale catalogue for the Parisian auction house Paillet & Delaroche, offering an unusually large number of Italian master paintings. The auctioneers do not anticipate that they will again have the opportunity to offer such an impressive selection of Italian works. Former owners and locations of the paintings include the Gherardini family, Viscount Castel-Barco, the Archbishop of Milan, and various churches and convents. Serious works include Van Dyck's portrait thought to be of Marc-Antoine Lumagne (now in the Royal Cornwall Museum); a typical bucolic scene by Bartolommeo Torregiani and four works by old master Salvator Rosa.
