<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bronwen, post: 9599793, member: 5833&quot;]I have representatives from 28 different hands that are clearly signed or, in one case where signing would not have been possible due to the fragility of the material, labeled.&nbsp; (One of them is contemporary, Aniello Pernice.)&nbsp; I have several others with attributions that are speculative, some more, some less so.&nbsp; The cameo of Alexey Olenin is one of these, but with the name Dobrokhotov attached by Dr. Julia Kagan of the Hermitage, most people wouldn&#039;t quarrel.</p><p><br /></p><p>Like you, I do not have any of the really top tier cameo artists.&nbsp; They come along so rarely &amp; sell for so much when they do, that they are quite beyond my means.&nbsp; But when it comes to cameos for the well-heeled <i>grand touriste</i>, I have, as an uncle of mine liked to say, an ample sufficiency, since I have more than 1 for a number of them.&nbsp; Luigi Michelini looked set to take over my entire collection for a while.&nbsp; Kept finding them right &amp; left and now have 9.&nbsp; Mouhé &amp; Schmoll are each in at 7.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
