Ein Mitglied der Familie mit dem Vornamen Pietro wird zwar in der Literatur mehrfach erwähnt, es gelang mir jedoch nicht, eine echte Arbeit von ihm zu ermitteln.
Karel Jalovec+
Bologna ca 1713. Son and probably also pupil of Carlo Tononi, from whom he took over his workshop and ran it with his son Carlo Antonio. Applied a golden-yellow varnish. Careful finish, rich tone.
