Andrew, son of Archduke Ferdinand II, was from 1576 Cardinal of the Roman Curia. In 1578, thanks to his help, Ferdinand II acquired »beautiful and precious sculptures in marble« for his collection. Ferdinand was interested in collecting sculptures of ancient »heroes«, be they originals, copies or imitations. The antique collection in Ambras shows a great number of casts and copies of original ancient sculptures, like the First Dozen Emperors of Rome, eleven busts of ancient Caesars, four female bust statues, nine head portraits of men, three reliefs and representations from the cycle of Hercules. There are also three Venus, two satyrs, Apollo, the »Three Graces«, and the heads of the sons of Laocoön.
