1. La Plata, the administrative centre of Buenos Aires province, had undergone economic vicissitudes at the end of the century, but with the upturn in its fortunes in the next few years it acquired a station of striking originality, an overall shed flanked by a staggeringly ornate pentagonal building covered in statuary and surmounted by a dome.
2. The early fakers of marble statuary used a variety of treatments to tone down the too obvious freshly carved surfaces, ranging from cold tea to the more sophisticated repeated acid bath treatments used by more recent fakers.
3. We tend now to think of Classical bronze statuary, for example, as being covered with a fine green or deep brown patina, and moreover that this was their original state.
4. To someone brought up in the relative austerities of the Church of Scotland, all this gilt and marble, colourful painting and painted statuary seems rather extraordinary and, somehow, secular.
5. Marbles and granites were imported and the building was embellished with appropriate statuary and ornamentation.
6. The statuary is continued on the sides, where some of the better examples form a sub-section of the 96 giant gargoyles.
7. Finer grades (such as Parian or Pentelic) were used for the most important statuary, and lower-quality and more local marble, mainly from south-western Turkey, was used for the main architectural building blocks of the monument.
8. Platzer again was responsible for the statuary and it was from the Platzer workshop too, in the mid-18C, that the Jesuit saints flanking the nave came.
9. It is entirely fitting that Dawn Run should share the statuary honours with the other two Cheltenham legends, for she was the first - and to date the only - horse to win both the Champion Hurdle and the Cheltenham Gold Cup.
10. This problem is especially common with Classical marble statuary which in the past was often highly restored before being sold.
11. In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, when noble families all over Europe were becoming increasingly art-conscious in the wake of the Renaissance and anxious to fill their mansions and palaces with pieces of classical statuary and other antiquities, the remains of Pompeii were ravaged haphazardly, with innumerable random pits being dug in the hope of turning up items of value, particularly small carved figures, vases and pieces of jewellery.
12. The only visible damage over the years has been to its statuary.
13. The ratio of stable isotopes in marble (see glossary) can also be used to determine provenance, and has been particularly useful in checking the integrity of statuary recomposed from fragments (see p. 109).
