Extract

Early in the present year (1920) a Roman sepulchral relief was brought by its owner to the notice of the British Museum. It had been acquired by him from a dealer in North London, with the information that it had been lying for at least fifty years in a contractor's yard at St. John's Wood. He had placed his purchase so as to form the central feature of a rock garden at Putney, but was ready to pass it on to other keeping. It now occupies the wall of one of the compartments of the Roman Gallery, in the British Museum.
