Paolo TOSCHI (1788-1854) Italian engraver. L.A.S., Parma November 14, 1823, to Baron Gérard; 3pages in-4, addressed with red wax seal and postmarks; in Italian. He was ill for part of the summer and autumn. He went to Florence to make the final proof of Alfieri's portrait, where a pain in his left knee kept him in bed for a fortnight; from his bed in Florence, he moved to his own in Parma, and has not yet recovered. He is working on Henri IV's entry: "L'Enrico sia sempre stato l'ogetto principalissimo della mia vita e che sia molto avanzato", and he hopes to finish it this year...
