chap, lix.] PRIVATE COLLECTIONS IN ROME. 535

Besides these two Museums, there are also in Rome
other smaller collections of Etruscan antiquities. The
Kircherian Museum is rich in coins, together with hronzes
and jewellery, and can hoast a superlative cista of bronze,
though this was not found in Etruria. Chevalier Kestner,
the Hanoverian Minister, possesses many Etruscan trea-
sures. The Signori Feoli have a fine collection of painted
vases from their excavations at Vulci. Dr. Emil Braun,
of the Archaeological Institute, has also some vases of
extraordinary beauty and remarkable character; and
besides many choice relics of Etruscan art, boasts of the
cabinet of Egyptian articles found in the Isis-tomb at
Vulci, and formerly in the possession of the Prince of
Canino.
