Abstract (en)

Relates a drawing by Gaetano Gandolfi, Chariot of Venus (Princeton, Princeton University, Art Museum) to a complex of preparatory studies for two oil bozzetti, Chariot of Venus and Chariot of Jupiter (present location unknown); suggests that they belong to a project for the decoration of a carriage (perhaps that of a Senatore Marescalchi, mentioned by Oretti).
