"Amore incatenato Statua” (Unchained Eros, Statue) is a wonderful black and white burin and etching on paper, realized by the Italian artist Francesco Cecchini (1790-1820), after Bernardino Nocchi (Lucca, 1741 - Rome, 1812) as the inscriptions on plates on lower margins report “Bernardino Nocchi delineò/ Francesco Cecchini incise Roma”. This original print is numbered on plate in Roman numerals on higher right corner “Tom. II.Tav. XXX” and is a plate from the series "Illustrazioni de'Monumenti scelti Borghesiani già esistenti nella Villa sul Pincio (..)date ora per la prima volta in luce dal cav. Gio. Gherardo De Rossi e da Stefano Piale sotto la guida di Vincenzo Feoli", by Ennio Quirino Visconti, published by Stamperia de Romanis in Rome, 1821. The Borghese Collection is known to be the most important antique statue one, after the Torlonia Collection in Rome.
