Garzoli, armorial title vignette, 125 plates, numbered 1-116, bis plates 22, 25, 53, 66, 92, 96, 98 and 3 for 113 (no pl. 34) by Garzoli and A. Banzo, after Thorvaldsen. (Occasional light spotting.)

A splendid copy, reproducing the work of the leading neoclassical sculptor of his day, Thorvaldsen. During the 1830s Thorvaldsen conceived of a museum in his native Denmark to house his models, plasters and collection of paintings by his contemporaries.
