<p>[QUOTE="808 raver, post: 2746082, member: 4654"]These drawings came yesterday from the library in Italy where a lot of Giusti's drawings are held. I was told by the keeper of manuscripts that there wasn't a drawing of my carving but they were great in looking through all his drawings finding elements that were in my carving. All of the drawings above hold some element in my carving but I was also told not all known works by him had a drawing, or at least not one that survived and they don't hold all his drawings, apparently they are held all over the world <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/frown.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":(" unselectable="on" /> I will admit I was a little disappointed but they said "looks like Giusti lot"(Italian Google translation lol) The language barrier has been a little trying (on both sides) but I still remain confident in finding out who carved it one day. I do have 2 london dealers known to have sold Giusti's if all else fails, I might try contacting them but I'm a little apprehensive because if it is by him I wouldn't know a price and that's a very bad situation to be in.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
