Lots 378 and 379 were in the Collections of Milton Abbey, at the Dorset home of the 1st Earls of Dorchester. Designed by the architect Sir William Chambers, Milton Abbey was built in 1774 in the Gothic style to compliment the adjacent church. The interiors remained largely original until the contents were sold on the premises by Phillips Son and Neale from 12-23 September 1932.
