The early "history", not in fact documented, has been constructed as if to support a secure Alexandrian provenance. The possibility of Alexandrian-scool hardstone carvers working for the Julio-Claudians is presented by J. Pollen. --Wetman (talk) 14:06, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
Editing Plans and Sources for the Tazza Farnese
[edit]The following is an overview of some of my plans for improving this article. Discussion of these plans is more than welcome.
The history section of the Tazza Farnese article briefly discusses its journey from Egypt in 31 BCE to its present day location in the Naples National Archaeological Museum, but has no mention of where it was created and why it was created. I’d like to expand on its origin quite a bit more if possible and, if not possible, I’d like to explain why (i.e., perhaps there are conflicting accounts on why and where it was made). I think the article would also greatly benefit from the introduction of a section regarding the specific materials the cup is comprised of and the significance of these materials, as well as a section on the subjects carved into the cup and the significance of said subjects. The article touches on the carvings briefly already, but in a cursory way. Finding and using information from many different sources is my main and overarching goal, as I think a lack of sources is the article’s primary issue. Babuwat (talk) 05:16, 6 October 2017 (UTC)
