Ancient Roman Bust, form the series "Antiquities of Herculaneum Exposed", is an original etching realized by Pietro Mangini in the late 18th century. Signed on the plate. Good conditions. The etching belongs to the print suite “Antiquities of Herculaneum Exposed” (original title: “Le Antichità di Ercolano Esposte”), an eight-volume volume of engravings of the finds form the excavation of the ruins of Herculaneum in the Kingdom of Naples (now Campania, Italy). This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no official proof of authenticity, however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity issues arising from misattribution
