Abstract (en)

Presents documentary evidence proving that eight Italian Baroque terra cotta sculptures in the Ca' d'Oro (Venice) originated from the collection of Filippo Farsetti and that they were removed from the collection between 1788 and 1800, when the rest of it (now divided between the Academy of Fine Arts and the Hermitage, Leningrad) was shipped to Russia. Attributes two works in the Venetian group to Rusconi; identifies Maderno as the author of the prototypes for a group of plaster casts in the Hermitage; and notes the influence of the Farsetti collection on Russian classicizing sculpture of the early 19th c.
