Michele Cavaleri (1813-1890) was a prominent lawyer in Milan, who collected a vast number of paintings, sculptures, antiquities and books. He negotiated with the city council of Milan to create a museum for his collection, but the council declined. Ernesto Cernuschi bought the entire collection in 1873 and it was shipped to Paris. Cernuschi died in 1896, part of the collection survives at the Musée Cernuschi in Paris, but much of it was sold. Bookplate of L.J.M. Corten on paste down.€ 2000
