Catalogue Note
Vari artisti ed incisori collaborarono alla realizzazione delle tavole: Pietro Fontana, Giovanni Petrini, Giovanni Volpato, Tommaso Piroli, Girolamo Bossi, e Girolamo Carattoni su disegni dell’architetto Giuseppe Pannini, Buanventura Salesa, Carlos Espinosa e Francesco Augustini. L’ampia tavola finale ripiegata (750x535 mm.) raffigura l’interno dell’antica chiesa di San Giacomo degli Spagnoli a Roma, ora Nostra Signora del Sacro Cuore, nella quale fu eseguita la messa funebre di memoria di Carlo III.
