"It is probable that the Italian whom Audubon met in New Orleans was Signor Fogliardi, scenic designer of the St. Philip Theatre. This artist opened the first art academy in New Orleans, with good results according to the standards of the classical school. Beltrami, a visitor to the city in 1822, described Fogliardi's own decorations as 'superb.'"
