Pergolesi, Michelangelo (circa 1760-1801), a noted designer of decorative ornament who was active in Italy and, after 1770, in England, where he was employed by Robert Adam. Pergolesi published his series entitled ‘Design for Various Ornaments, etc.’ in fourteen parts, between 1771 and 1801. It is from these prints derive. This lot also allows one to see how greatly influenced Pergolesi was by the grotesques of Rafael and others Etruscan models as well as the incorporation of fanciful animals into filigreed constructions.
