The article presents an unknown portrait of the sculptor Antonio Dal Zotto (1841-1918), by the American
painter Charles Frederic Ulrich (1858-1908). The painting shows two bozzettos for the monument to Carlo
Goldoni erected in Venice in 1883: they present the same variants of the first plaster model, dating back to
1876, and of the subsequent editions of the work in bronzetto format. A letter sent by the sculptor to Domenico
Trentacoste (1859-1933) is also published.
