Sepulchral Relief from Attica, at Winton Castle, Haddingtonshire
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 23 December 2013
Extract
The Attic sepulchral relief reproduced on Plate B, is the principal object in an interesting collection of antiques formed by the late Baroness Ruthven of Winton Castle, Haddingtonshire, and assigned by her to the Museum of the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland. The bulk of the collection, consisting of vases, mostly of a small size and of the black figured kind, but including several good Attic lekuthoi, is now deposited in the Museum, but the most notable objects remain still at Winton Castle. These comprise a fine hydria 13½ inches high, with a red-figured design (Paris, Helen and other figures with Erotes, etc.) very delicately drawn in the best style, and two sepulchral reliefs, of which one is small and of poor workmanship, and the other, now for the first time published, an interesting and charming work.
