Pacifico Sidoli fu autore assai versatile, di buon nome non solo come ritrattista ma anche come pittore di paesaggi, realizzati a olio, a pastello o all'acquerello. Trasferitosi giovanissimo da Piacenza, sua città natale, a Parigi, si distinse anche in quella capitale, ove fu ammesso ben presto ai Salons, esponendo in varie altre città d'Europa con buon successo. Come lui, anche i due fratelli minori Nazzareno e Giuseppe si distinsero nel campo artistico-pittorico. 1 e 2. Ritratto di fanciulla sorridente, in due pose diverse. Due pastelli eseguiti su cartoncino bruno, ciascuno di cm. 54 x 35. La graziosa modella inclina vezzosamente il capo, nel primo ritratto con un nastro nero a trattenerle i capelli che nel secondo sono invece sciolti. Euro: 1.500 3. Ritratto di fanciulla bionda.
