Card base with six black and white photographs attached. Two of these (1936/01/05/23/01 and 03) are labelled with the pasted letter a, and between them (1936/01/05/32/02) is labelled with pasted letter b. The other three, below, have between them a single pasted letter c. The number 164 is pasted in the lower left corner. In the lower right corner is written in ink "All the bronzes on this sheet are about 5 1/2" high". Next the the letters ‘a's, and below the letter c with a line indicating it is referring to all three images, are later annotations in pencil giving bibliographic references. The original description in the catalogue reads: "Bronze Figure of a Trumpeter, found at the temple of Athena of the Brazen House (Chalkioikos) on the Acropolis of Sparta: height about five inches; c. 450 B.C. b. Bronze Figure of Athena Promachos, from the Acropolis of Sparta: 500-400 B.C. c. Archaic Bronze Figure of a Goddess, found at the Menelaion sanctuary, on the far side of the river Eurotas. From the circumstances of its discovery it cannot be later than 600 B.C. and might be earlier than 700 B.C." |
