Vittoria, die schöne Winzerin von Albano, in: Kestner, August: Römische Studien, Berlin, 1850, S. 81-93. - Unser Werk stellt ein Portrait Vittoria Candida Rosa Caldonis (1805 - 1890), der Tochter einer Winzerfamilie in Albano Laziale in Italien, dar. Christian August Kestner trat um 1808 seine ersten Italienreisen an, auf denen der Jurist, Diplomat und Archäologe, später Zeichner und Kunstsammler, sein Interesse für die bildende Kunst entwickelte. Im Jahr 1820 machte er die Bekanntschaft mit Caldoni, die ihm und den Malern und Bildhauern der römischen Künstlerkolonie fortan Modell saß. Für die in Rom lebenden deutschen Künstler, insbesondere die Gruppe der Nazarener, galt das Mädchen als das Idealbild weiblicher Schönheit und Reinheit.

Vittoria, the beautiful winegrower's daughter from Albano, in: Kestner, August: Roman Studies, Berlin, 1850, pp. 81-93. - Our work depicts a portrait of Vittoria Candida Rosa Caldoni (1805-1890), the daughter of a winegrowing family in Albano Laziale, Italy. Christian August Kestner undertook his first journeys to Italy around 1808, during which the lawyer, diplomat and archaeologist-later a draughtsman and art collector-developed his interest in the visual arts. In 1820, he met Caldoni, who from then on sat as a model for him and the painters and sculptors of the Roman artists' colony. For the German artists living in Rome, particularly the Nazarene group, the girl was regarded as the ideal image of feminine beauty and purity.
