The Arundel marbles were catalogued as early as 1628, when, at the suggestion of Sir Robert Bruce Cotton, John Selden compiled a catalogue: Marmora Arundeliana with the assistance of two others, Patrick Young and Richard James.
His statues, which had been part of the Arundelian collection, and had been purchased by his grandfather, were bought by his mother for presentation to the university of Oxford.
He adorned the whole with part of the Arundel marbles which he had purchased and which his son had actually the temerity to attempt to restore with the assistance of the Italian sculptor Giovanni Battista Guelfi, 'a scholar of Camillo Rusconi.
