Who was Orfeo Boselli?

Orfeo Boselli was an Italian sculptor working in Rome. As with most Roman sculptors of the sixteenth through the eighteenth centuries, a great part of his commissioned work was in restoring and completing fragmentary ancient Roman sculptures. A pupil of François Duquesnoy, whose classicising "Greek" manner was the antithesis to Gian Lorenzo Bernini's, Boselli served as Principe at the Accademia di San Luca in Rome.
