Abstract

Legislation issued in the Papal States in the field of the fine arts focused on the need to regulate and reduce the continuous dispersion of artistic heritage, an issue that became more and more pressing with the expansion and differentiation of the art market due to the growing number of travellers visiting the eternal city during the Grand Tour. This essay proposes some reflections on the exportations of works of art between norm and practice, and on the complex relationship between protection and artistic promotion in the Papal States in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century.
