A colleague of mine had a look at it and this is his report:</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><i>The thesis shows that in the Siena municipal library there is an original manuscript, left by his wife in 1912 (Memoir of Memories), with 4 large books with over three hundred designs of decorative motifs made up to 1855 (Work studios: 4 large green books). The photocopy of one of these (Plate 140) is vaguely similar, representing a shield with a head of Medusa or Bacchus in the center. Other materials are in the archive of the Art School of Siena (formerly the Art Institute).</i></p><p><br /></p><p><i>The original design could be in that manuscript.</i></p><p><br /></p><p><i>[...] The technique of ornamentation in that historical moment, but up to years very close to us, includes a standardized and widespread language, and could be a work of school.&quot;</i></p><p><i>I didn&#039;t want to press them as all what they had done was out of the goodness of their heart </i>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
