Hovey died in 1895 and Colonel Titus retired to Brattleboro, VT in 1898."

The Rape of a Sabine Woman, Giambologna (after), Giambologna (rejected attribution), c. 1600 - c. 1625
This complex group of three intertwined figures is a reduced copy of the monumental marble sculpture Giambologna made in 1583 for the Loggia dei Lanzi in Florence, where it stands to this day.
