Souvenirs of the Grand Tour from the Collection of Thomas S. Holman Lots 200–295

Souvenirs of The Grand Tour: The Collection of Thomas S. Holman In the 18th and early 19th century young Englishmen embarked on lengthy travels to the Continent, known as the Grand Tour. Ostensibly, the voyage was to round out one’s education, which still emphasized a strong knowledge of Classical arts and architecture, languages, history, literature, and philosophy. It also provided months, and sometimes even years, to collect art and artifacts. Later in the 19th century, the advent of rail and steamship travel allowed the middle-class to continue the tradition of the Grand Tour.

As part of a specific itinerary that primarily included stops in Italy and France, Grand Tourists visited archeological excavations in the hope of witnessing pottery or sculptural artifacts being exhumed. As the number of Grand Tourists grew, so did the demand for ancient artifacts to be taken home as souvenirs.

A cottage industry emerged providing miniature models and “object de art” celebrating the Classical world to help fill the demand. Italians were quick to make souvenir buildings or ruins in bronze, alabaster, and marble, so that Grand Tourists could buy a model of what they had just seen, such as in the Roman Forum. Artisans went so far as to fire Classical-style pottery with encrustations to simulate the mud found on excavated antique examples.

Thomas S. Holman assembled his collection of souvenirs of the Grand Tour over the course of fortytwo years. He started acquiring at the age of eighteen. His interest developed from his exposure to the ancient world through childhood trips to London, Paris, and Greece. He studied at Oxford University and the University of Vienna and traveled as an adult to Munich, Berlin, Italy, England, and France. During vacations, he became a treasure hunter in Europe. Holman haunted flea markets, antique markets, antique shops, and dealers of fine and decorative arts. He has a theory: If he owns one item it is because he admires it, if he owns two then he has a pair, but if he owns three that means he is collecting it.

Tom Holman’s collection began with Antique-style Grand Tour vessels as a less expensive alternative to the cost prohibitive originals. Bronze columns, such as Trajan’s Column in Rome, and Egyptian obelisks came next, followed by a variety of models and micromosaics of Rome. Holman’s most prized pieces are the carved alabaster and marble monuments, arches, and buildings of Rome, particularly the Pantheon.

For Tom Holman, these souvenirs of ancient buildings and ruins represent the wonders of the world, while also referencing the cultural phenomenon that was the Grand Tour. Holman, who for the past forty years served as a museum curator and director, looks forward to dispersing “The Tom Holman Museum” and sharing these objects with other collectors and enthusiasts.
