The International Exhibition: the Italian Court - from a photograph by the London Stereoscopic Company, 1862. 'In the left ground, inclosed in a glass case, is an inlaid ebony cabinet by Gatti, of Florence; in the centre stands another inlaid cabinet, of mosaic and bronze work, by Bosi, of Florence, over which peers a well-executed marble bust of Victor Emmanuel. To the right is a sidelong view of the Diana of Albertoni, and a full front of the Musidora of Fantacchiotti. Numerous other articles are included in minute detail in the picture, which is one favourably chosen to give an idea of the character of the more ornamental department of the Italian Court'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862.
