The antique original of the present vase was discovered, probably in 1569, on the site of the gardens of Sallust. By the mid-seventeenth century it was in the Villa Borghese, and it was bought from Prince Camillo Borghese by Napoleon, who shipped it to Paris in the early nineteenth century. It is now thought to have originated in an Athenian workshop.
