The present model of a helmeted nereid inkwell is known in a number of variants, one of which depicts the nereid holding or playing a stringed instrument resembling a cittern. Penny mentions further examples of the present bronze in the Ashmolean Museum (with coat-of-arms of the Malatesta family of Bologna), the Wallace Collection and in the collection of Baron and Baroness von Schröder (loc. cit.). The present bronze stands out amongst the known casts as a particularly fine example in facture and finish.
