Resumen de Tre lettere di Giuseppe Passalacqua a Daniello Berlinghieri
Giuseppe Passalacqua conducted some excavations in Egypt collecting a lot of antiquities, that he brought along to Paris. There he exhibited them, waiting for a convenient purchase offer. Thanks to three letters, filed in the Biblioteca degli Intronati in Siena, we learn that Passalacqua invited the ambassador of the Grand Duke of Tuscany, Daniello Berlinghieri, to admire his collection and to attend the opening of his mummy, hoping he would recommend to the Grand Duke purchasing his Egyptian antiquities.
