†After the Antique: A lead model of the Warwick urn 2nd half 19th century on later composition stone base urn 86cm.; 34ins wide; 130cm.; 51ins high overall The marble original of this urn was discovered in 1771. It was purchased by Sir William Hamilton and sold after restoration to the Earl of Warwick, who for a long time forbade casts to be made of it. Eventually bronze and cast iron replica’s were made and it was copied on a reduced scale in silver, bronze and terracotta by artists using the prints by Piranese. It is perhaps the most famous antique vase after the Medici and Borghese urns. By repute, it headed a list of art treasures compiled by Napoleon Bonaparte, to be appropriated after the conquest of Great Britain.
