- Abstract
Initially considered a minor work, the execution of theatrical sets evolved throughout the 17th century, progressively involving prestigious artist. This is demonstrated by the staging of Triunfos de Amor y Fortuna. Conceived in 1655 by Baccio del Bianco to celebrate the king's years, its set designs were initially entrusted to three artists practically unknown today. Delayed representation until 1658, already dead its creator, they were finished by Francisco Rizi under Antonio María de Antonozzi supervision, who seems to have followed Baccio's designs, since there are hardly any changes in the project. This is clear from the comparison we make in this work between the set designs commissioned in 1655 and those that were finally made for their representation in 1658, described in detail in the dimensions of the festival editions.
