Descrizione

Very large and beautiful carved cameo by Filippo Tignani, depicting the bust of an elegant mustachioed gentleman, signed F. TIGNANI on the troncation and FPO TIGNANI ENGRAVER. ROMA PZA DI SPAGNA 10 on the back. Onyx, 42 x 33 mm. The identification of the sitter has alas been lost, but this portrait is distinctive and could undoubtedly be recognized in the future. Tignani, who was active from the 1860s to the 1880s, was established Piazza di Spagna 10 by 1867 according to the Handbook of Rome and Its Environs, and he used the address Via Condotti 91 from at-the-latest 1877 onwards. Some of his earliest – less refined – cameos bear no address on their backs.
