The paper is a preliminary note on the historical collection of lamps promoted by G.B. Passeri in Pesaro (Italy) during the XVIII century. It is one of the most important and conspicuous ensemble of ancient Roman lamps and fakes, partially published by Passeri, between 1739 and 1751, in three volumes titled Lucernae fictiles. A manuscript of the fourth volume remains unpublished. The collection, now including around 1200 pieces, is a precious study case, because it offers the possibility to connect antiquities, manuscripts, correspondences and volumes owned to Passeri and all preserved in the Biblioteca e Musei Oliveriani.

Abstract
The paper is a preliminary note on the historical collection of lamps promoted by G.B. Passeri in Pesaro (Italy) during the XVIII century. It is one of the most important and conspicuous ensemble of ancient Roman lamps and fakes, partially published by Passeri, between 1739 and 1751, in three volumes titled Lucernae fictiles. A manuscript of the fourth volume remains unpublished. The collection, now including around 1200 pieces, is a precious study case, because it offers the possibility to connect antiquities, manuscripts, correspondences and volumes owned to Passeri and all preserved in the Biblioteca e Musei Oliveriani.File in questo prodotto:
