Portrait of Benedetto Pistrucci ca. 1850 Maria Elisa Pistrucci British Benedetto Pistrucci taught gem carving to his children. This is an exceedingly rare tribute from a carver to her father and mentor. The buoyant curls and muttonchops above the timelessly classical drapery at the neck are easily interpretable as silvery white marks of distinction.[James D. Draper, 2008].
