1913 Caproni Casts Special Catalouge of Subjects for the Decoration of
Schools, Libraries and Homes

P. P. CAPRONI and BROTHER Catalogs
Florentine master craftsman Pietro Caproni practiced the art of creating
quality reproductions. During the last two decades of the 19th century, he
traveled through Europe making molds directly from masterpieces in museums
such as the Louvre, the National Museum in Athens, the Vatican, the Uffizi
Gallery, and the British Museum. Considered the greatest craftsman of his
time, Caproni was one of the last to be allowed the freedom of casting
directly from museum pieces.
Owners of Giust Gallery, world renowned sculptor Robert Shure and Kathleen
Shure are pleased to present this historic catalog on-line. As the on-line
