Condition Report

Magnificent engraving translation of the imposing fresco made by Alessandro Allori in the Medici Villa of Poggio a Caiano between 1578 and 1582, which alludes to the journey of Lorenzo the Magnificent to Naples where he was welcomed by the King.
G. E. Morghen, painter, draftsman and burin engraver, still active around 1789, brother of Filippo Morghen, was a pupil of A. Feroci and D. Feretti. Most likely he was part of the workshop of Carlo Bartolomeo Gregori: in fact he executed, with him and other artists of his school, 26 of the engravings present in the second Florentine edition (1766) of the Paintings of the Imperial Hall of the palace in Florence, which also included the reproductions of the pictorial decorations present in the villas of Petraia and Poggio a Caiano.
