They originated in the 1440ies with the desire to reproduce coins and hardstone engravings from ancient Greece and Rome. Some were made as collector's pieces, to be viewed and displayed in private, and others for practical purposes. They also inspired designs in other media, from architecture to book-bindings. Plaquettes had a role in disseminating classical imagery and designs throughout Europe, in the same manner as the contemporary print. The subject matter was often a miniature composition, only rarely a single isolated figure. \r\nPalinurus, the helmsman of Aeneas, fell overboard and was washed up on the shore of Italy, there to be murdered by Lucanians. Cape Palinurus is named after him.","physicalDescription":"Neptune, naked, brandishing his trident between four sea-horses among the waves. At his feet lies the dead body of Palinurus.","artistMakerPerson":[{"name":{"text":"van Tetrode, Willem (Guglielmo Fiammingo)","id":"A14405"},"association":{"text":"maker","id":"AAT251917"},"note":"ascribed to"}],"artistMakerOrganisations":[],"artistMakerPeople":[],"materials":[{"text":"bronze","id":"AAT10957"}],"techniques":[{"text":"casting","id":"AAT53104"}],"materialsAndTechniques":"Bronze","categories":[{"text":"Sculpture","id":"THES48896"},{"text":"Plaques & Plaquettes","id":"THES49031"},{"text":"Myths & Legends","id":"THES49005"}],"styles":[],"collectionCode":{"text":"SCP","id":"THES48600"},"images":["2006BB0962","2017KJ9912"],"imageResolution":"high","galleryLocations":[{"current":{"text":"044","id":"THES395696"},"free":"","case":"","shelf":"","box":""}],"partTypes":[[{"text":"Plaquette","id":""}]],"contentWarnings":[{"apprise":"","note":""}],"placesOfOrigin":[{"place":{"text":"Italy","id":"x28927"},"association":{"text":"made","id":"x28654"},"note":"Dutch"}],"productionDates":[{"date":{"text":"3rd quarter of 16th century","earliest":"1550-01-01","latest":"1575-12-31"},"association":{"text":"made","id":"x28654"},"note":""}],"associatedObjects":[],"creditLine":"Salting Bequest","dimensions":[{"dimension":"Diameter","value":"7.5","unit":"cm","qualifier":"","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"","note":""}],"dimensionsNote":"","marksAndInscriptions":[],"objectHistory":"From the Salting bequest.","historicalContext":"","briefDescription":"Plaquette, bronze, Neptune and Palinurus, ascribed to Guglielmo Fiammingo, Italo-Dutch, 3rd quarter of 16th century","bibliographicReferences":[{"reference":{"text":"","id":""},"details":"","free":"'Salting Bequest (A. 70 to A. 1029-1910) / Murray Bequest (A. 1030 to A. 1096-1910)'.
