Resumen de Pietro Bracci e la protezione degli Orsini: dal monumento a Benedetto XIII al monumento a Benedetto XIV
Pietro Bracci is one of the best-known Roman sculptors of the eighteenth century, yet his artistic language remains largely under-studied, like that of his patrons and the cultural circles in which he moved. This essay seeks to reclaim his personal and creative stature, starting with his relations with the Orsini family, who commissioned three very important works: the monument to Benedict XIII in Santa Maria sopra Minerva, the statue of Saint Vincent de Paul, and the monument to Benedict XIV, both in the Basilica of Saint Peter's.
