专家说明

The design of this spirally fluted urn is illustrated in John Vardy's Some Designs of Mr. Inigo Jones and Mr. William Kent, 1744, in which this urn, alongside another, are described as ‘Two Vases with Pedestals for Mr Pope’. This refers to designs for Alexander Pope's garden at Twickenham, overlooking the Thames, which was to become one of the most original contributions in the history of English garden design.
