of black marble], with the metal statues which lie upon it, and the
beautiful casts in _alto-relievo_ [of copper gilt], which ornament the
sides, were executed by the celebrated Italian artist Pietro Torrigiano
... for the sum of 1500_l._ Its surrounding Screen, or ‘Closure’ [of
gilt brass and copper], which is altogether in a different style of
workmanship, though almost equally curious, was, most probably, both
designed and wrought by English artizans.” Neale’s _Account of Henry the
Seventh’s Chapel_, pp. 54, 59.
