CLASSICAL FIGURES

Classical figures

Figures from Classical history and mythology provided subject matter for many 19th -century artists and designers. The Elgin Marbles, brought to Britain from the Parthenon in Athens in 1812, provided particular inspiration. Renaissance bronze sculptures of Classical figures were also much admired and emulated.
