The paper offers a preliminary, but global view on the Passeri collection of lamps for contributing to its knowledge and for better contextualizing it in the 18th century culture. Particularly are considered the entity of the collection, the proveniences of the lamps, the evidences for their falsification process, the ‘methodological approaches’ to the antiquities by G.B. Passeri. All the questions are discussed in relation to the publications by Passeri, the volume on Lucernae fictiles at first, that testify to his peculiar culture between erudite curiosity and antiquarian research.

Abstract
The paper offers a preliminary, but global view on the Passeri collection of lamps for contributing to its knowledge and for better contextualizing it in the 18th century culture. Particularly are considered the entity of the collection, the proveniences of the lamps, the evidences for their falsification process, the ‘methodological approaches’ to the antiquities by G.B. Passeri. All the questions are discussed in relation to the publications by Passeri, the volume on Lucernae fictiles at first, that testify to his peculiar culture between erudite curiosity and antiquarian research.File in questo prodotto:
