Would I have just brought all my purchases along with me in a giant baggage train? Hired someone local to package and ship it to my estate while I keep traveling? Had a specific 'shipping expert' along with me to handle the logistics of such packaging and whatnot?

(Question is inspired by a visit the other week to Boston's Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum and all the sizeable Chinese & Japanese art/statues/etc it has on display, so she could be used as a specific example of "how'd she get all this heavy shit home to Boston" if that's easier to answer)
