    AnnotationThe case studies examine acquisition methods and the value that collectors placed on sculpture - coins, reliefs, busts, and statues - for opulent interior decoration and outdoor display or for use as studio models.A wide range of topics is explored, including the appeal of antiquities, the Medici ivory collection, and the business of supplying garden statues in Northern Europe - as well as ways of displaying sculpture and the meanings it had when placed on the facade of a villa or in a palace garden. Together the essays allow a comparative reading of European sculpture collections and the motives underlying their formation.
