Depiction of Antinous by A. Wager from fifth edition (1884) of George Taylor’s “Antinous”
Beautiful tondos, portraying episodes from Hadrian’s life. On the left is the famous lion hunt scene, on which Hadrian took Antinous. Sadly vandalised by someone(and yes, I look at you, Constantine). Hadrian’s head was cut and changed to Constantine’s. Now can be seen on the Arch of Constantine in Rome.
