Papal States, Pope Gregory XVI, framed cameo, work by Giovanni Settari (1773–1833) 7.50 x 8.50 cm Bust of Pope Gregory XVI (1765–1846) engraved on a glass paste cameo mounted on an oval onyx base. The entire piece is enclosed in a gold frame mounted on decorated glass. The inscription “G. SETTARI” is engraved on the edge of the bust. It cannot be ruled out that this work was created in 1833, the year of the election of Bartolomeo Cappellari—born Gregory XVI—as Pope. Therefore, according to official biographies, this could be one of the last works by the talented Roman engraver, whose glyptic works are housed in the most famous museums around the world.
