Lot Essay

The design for this table is attributed to Francesco Antonio Franzoni (Italian 1734-1818). Franzoni was an important sculptor and restorer most well-known for his work in the Museo Pio-Clementino, the Vatican museum of antiquities. The present lot is designed directly after the table by Franzoni currently in the Museum housed in the Hall of Animals. Another example of this table of the same date range is in the Getty Center (93.DA.18). In addition to his notable restorations, he worked on prestigious building projects like the funerary monument to Princess Maria Flaminia Odescalchi-Chigi in S. Maria del Popolo.
