Anglesey Abbey 2011-10-29

Lead statue signed by John Cheere, dated 1720, formerly at Copped Hall, Essex. Previously identified as Diana and Actaeon (or perhaps Venus and Adonis, according to the list description: britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-49319-sculpture-group-of-... ); the 2008 guidebook (revised 2010) identifies the subject as Meleager and Atalanta, presumably on account of the dead boar at the base of the composition.
