$a The date of the dedication is '5. Nov. 1681.' The work was commissioned from Baldinucci by Bernini's friend and patron, Queen Christina of Sweden, shortly after Bernini's death. The nine plates show plans and details of parts of St Peter's, Rome. The frontispiece shows Gaulli's portrait of Bernini. The original of the portrait of Bernini (painted ca. 1673) exists in two versions - one at Rome and one in the Courtauld Institute, London. |
