Discorso dell' Abate Gaetano Marini sopra tre candelabri acquistati dal S. P. Clemente XIV.
Marini's 1771 Italian discourse on three candelabra acquired by Pope Clement XIV, from the Heidelberg University Library, is an antiquarian treatise on ancient bronze and marble furniture. Its engraved plates show tall tiered candelabra with figured pedestal panels, and a designer might borrow their stacked acanthus collars, figure-filled niches and scrolled ornament for classical architectural detail.
