Caption

Bronze Inkstand - 16th Century, 1850. Item from an exhibition of ancient and mediaeval art at the Society of Arts in London. 'The bronze Inkstand...is of Italian workmanship of the sixteenth century; it is triangular, and enriched with dolphins and demi-eagles, and is altogether a choice specimen of the rather questionable good taste in ornamentation which marks the style of the renaissance; it is exhibited by Mr. Brunel...'.
