The marble antiquities, The Right Honble. the Earl of Pembrokes, at Wilton are too many to be drawn by but several hands there being statues, bustos, bass-reliev's and miscellanies ...
This is a 1731 London set of etched plates by Cary Creed, printed for sale to the public, recording classical marble statues held at Wilton House for the Earl of Pembroke. The four plates show standing male figures on plinths, drawn in fine etched line with loose hatching on drapery and bare limbs, a useful reference for designers wanting classical contrapposto poses, draped togas, and sculptural shading.
