Selection of ancient works of art), curated by Professor Giancarlo Sestieri and with the participation of Professor Andrea Emiliani, Grafiche Veneziane, Venezia 2011, pp. 36-37. This delightful unpublished painting on a wooden support depicts two pomegranates and a colourful butterfly in flight. One of the two pomegranates is open and we can easily see the kernels inside the globose fruit. The butterfly represents an element that appears in various "nature posing" paintings.
