This tripod perfume burner is one of Stuart's most important and enduring designs. It is based on his sketch of a reconstruction of the tripod that once stood on the roof of the Choragic Monument of Lysicrates in Athens. On his return to London, Stuart revived this tripod form, which appears as a decorative object in his drawings dating from as early as 1757.
Widely recognised for his central role in pioneering Neoclassicism, Stuart developed his influential career across various fields: interior decoration, sculpture, furnishing, metalwork and architecture.
