Catalogue Note
Paolo Spagna, nacque nel 1736, divenne mastro argentiere nel 1772 e morì nel 1788. Egli è probabilmente il più conosciuto di un'intera famiglia di argentieri fra i più apprezzati in Roma, a partire dal capostipite Pietro nato nel 1561, fino a Gioacchino, morto nel 1879. Il culmine della sua opera è forse il busto in argento di san Rufino, conservato nella Cattedrale di Assisi.
