Design for a Round Tureen, Giovacchino Belli, Italian, 1756 - 1822, Pen and ink, brush and watercolor, graphite on paper, Vertical rectangle. Design for a round tureen intended to be executed in partly gilded silver. The round base is similar to that in 1938-88-651: a round base of two sections, the lower one showing a fret band. Four standing displayed eagles carrying festoons are intended upon the upper section, three shown. A round pedestal rises in the middle. Upon it stands upon four curved legs the bowl, described with leaf festoons hanging from Medusa masks at the upper ends of the legs
