GAETANO GANDOLFI (SAN MATTEO DELLA DECIMA 1734 - 1802 BOLOGNE)Les trois têtes couronnéesplume et encre brune14,8 x 16 cm (5 3⁄4 x 6 1⁄4 in.) Literature P. Bagni, I Gandolfi: Affreschi, Dipinti, Bozzetti, Disegni, Bologne, 1992, n°593, ill. Post lot text GAETANO GANDOLFI, THREE CROWNED HEADS, PEN AND BROWN INKMany of Gandolfi's pen head studies, baptised 'capricci di teste' by Donatella Biagi ('Gaetano Gandolfi's Capricci of Heads: Drawings and Engravings', The Burlington Magazine, CXXXVI, 1994, pp. 375-380), were made into prints by the Bolognese etcher Luigi Tadolini (1758-1823). Twenty of them were published in the Raccolta di teste pittoriche inventate e disegnate a penna dal Sig. G. Gandolfi around 1785 and there is a copy previously owned by Jacques Doucet in the Bibliothèque Nationale, Paris (inv. 4 RES 57; op. cit., pp.376-377, ill.). Although the present drawing cannot be related to a print, it was most likely intended for the market.
