Excerpt from The Marlborough Gems: Being a Collection of Works in Cameo and Intaglio Formed by George, Third Duke of Marlborough; Catalogued With Descriptions, and an Introduction The particular cameo he holds is that numbered 390 in this Cata logue; it was one of the gems collected individually by the Duke's excellent taste, and it no doubt claimed on that account, no less than from its high intrinsic importance, a place of honour among his gems. The proportion which the part of the Collection thus formed by the Duke, by separate purchases in Italy and at home, bears to the whole of the Cabinet, amounts to about the half. The remaining half is composed of two distinct collections united by the Duke to his own, each of which was important and celebrated.
