Long Description
We have been researching for a while and have found very little regarding the artist and any past auctions for his work. Â The only other places we could locate his architectural etchings are the Metropolitan Museum of Art (who I contacted this week and am waiting on the curator for the pieces to evaluate my images) and the Vatican Fabbrica. Â The artist is Giacomo Sangermano, who was an architect working under Nicoletta Marconi during the restoration of St. Peter's in the mid-late 1700's. Â There is a letter on the back, which I will attach an image of, from a business in London which is now closed. Â Any help on this piece would be greatly appreciated!
History
The only history we have is on the letter on the back
