In 1786-87 he visited Naples, where the beauteous Emma Hart was the current rage. Artists crowded the rooms of her protector, Sir William Hamilton: "The house is full of painters painting me," Emma wrote. "Marchant is cutting my head in stone, that is in cameo for a ring.. All the artists is coming from Rome to study from me." Either Marchant cut both a cameo and an intaglio or the unlettered Emma confused the two. The Grecian headdress is in keeping with her famous "attitudes," poses she struck based on masterpieces of antiquity..
