St Peter

by ASPETTI, Tiziano, Silver, partially gilded, height 53 cm

The bronze statuettes attributed to Aspetti vary widely in style and quality. No signed statuette exists. Silver figures of St Peter and its pendant St Paul (both Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, Rotterdam) may well be the pieces referred to by the artist in a letter of 1602 to Laura Gonzaga, Duchess of Mantua.
