Title |
Pair of Vases |

Description |
English: This pair of neoclassical vases is distinguished by its superb gilt-bronze, goat shaped mount which is thought to be by Pierre Philippe Thomire, an outstanding sculptor and bronze-caster of the late 18th century.
Vases of a similar form, though with different decoration, bearing the date-letters for 1782 were purchased by George IV. The Walters' pair have tentatively been associated with a 1784 inventory reference at the Palace of Versailles. |
