Fine and EXTREMELY RARE set of festival plates. The etching of a float drawn by a pair of bears is signed with Alberti's CA monogram (Nagler, Monogrammisten 261). The Metropolitan Museum of Art set consists of 11 etchings within an ornamental border by Orazio Scarabelli; the Victoria and Albert Museum set also belongs to the borderless state.
