Item description from seller

Portfolio. Condition: Fine. Francesco Nicotra, Publisher, Italy 2000. 8 prints. Nice Firm Clean copies ! Size: Elephant Folio 15 - 23'' tall. The eight scenes contained in this portfolio are part of a group of about two hundred large watercolors by Achille in the Museum of Rome. The entire collection has been treated in a volume edited by Bruno Brizzi, Le chiese di Roma negli acquerelli di Achille Pinelli (Editore Colombo, Rome, 1985). For the most part they represent churches or religious buildings; not, however, solely as architectural monuments, but above all as typical settings of Roman popular life. About thirty are pure genre scenes depicting popular customs and artisans' workshops. All were executed between 1832 and 1835, and as a whole they constitute a significant figurative monument to the daily life of the Roman people in the reign of Gregory XVI. Pinelli's images of Rome in the tWilight era of papal temporal rule are also precious documents: just a few decades later this picturesque world was swept away in a frenetic effort to transform papal Rome into a modern European capital for the newborn Kingdom of Italy.
