| The collaborative work of Rodney and Janice Dietert, "The Edinburgh Goldsmiths I: Training, Marks, Output And Demographics" is a definitive survey of almost five hundred years of the goldsmithing in Edinburgh, Scotland from the 1500s down to the present day and includes both apprentices as well as the freemen goldsmiths themselves. Besides the celebrated extant portraits and other paintings, Foister also attends systematically to a wide range of creativity: drawing designs by Holbein for lost goldsmithing work; his lost canvas and mural decorations for royal festivals and vanished guild halls; and his woodcut productions, including title pages for books. Vittorio (Vitaliano Trevisan), who runs a small goldsmithing business he inherited from his father, meets Sonia (Michela Cescon) through a classified ad. |
