Francesco Paolo Michetti - whose wife and small son are depicted in the painting - was among his earliest admirers, from the very beginning prodigal with encouragement and advice for the very young 'Felluccio' (Raffaello) Celommi whom he met on his frequent visits to the studio/home of the so-called 'Castelletto' in Rosburg.
