• Resumen

  • Panini's painting in the Louvre of the musical performance given on 12th July 1747 at the Teatro Argentina, Rome, to celebrate the marriage of the Dauphin to Marie-Josephe of Saxony (Fig. 1),' commissioned by Cardinal Frederic Jerome de Roye de la Rochefoucauld, French ambassador to the Holy See from July 1746 to March 1748, has a hitherto over- looked private facet, which is important for a proper understanding of the painting, and throws new light on Panini's working methods.
