Abstract

This study contributes new facts concerning the taste of Felipe V and Isabel de Farnesio for sculpture and antiquities, as well as the provenance and identification of the works composing their collection. Moreover, the dates in which the description of the gallery of statues installed in the Royal Palace of San Ildefonso was carried out have been determined, as have been those of the plates which make up the “Aiello Notebook” between 1750 and 1751. The motives for carrying out this project and the reasons Isabel de Farnesio finally decided not to publish it are also examined. Data relating to conservation work carried out on these sculptures, now preserved in the collections of Patrimonio Nacional and the Museo del Prado, are likewise included.
