Alexander Teixeira de Mattos translation

Bartolomeo Pinelli, a celebrated Roman engraver. His works include a Raccolta di cinquante costumi pittoreschi incisi all'acqua forte (1809) and a Nuova raccolta di cinquante costumi pittoreschi incisi all'acqua forte (1815), 100 folio plates in all. It was doubtless out of this collection that he promised "twelve scenes" to Chateaubriand.—B.
