The presence of this object is frequent in the representations of landscape painters from central Italy in the 19th century. In the past, numerous specimens could be seen in the "Reggia di Caserta", along the via rampante, under the dolphin fountain (L. and C. Vanvitelli). To date we have investigated, the vases have disappeared and we cannot understand where the administration placed them. Maybe in the Capodimonte museum in Naples.
