AN ALLEGORICAL VINOVO BISCUIT TROPHY, CIRCA 1790; SLIGHTLY WORN, SOME MINOR LOSSES
This biscuit appears in a series with the table trophies modelled by Tagliolini and published by Alvar Gonzàlez Palacios in 1988 (A. Gonzàlez Palacios, Lo scultore Filippo Tagliolini e la porcellana di Napoli, fig . 70, p. 175 also for documentary references on this production in Naples). The finding of this specimen, marked, also allows us to hypothesise a possible change in the attribution of the biscuits published in 1988, given the sustained quality of the biscuits produced in Vinovo.
