About the Item
Gilt Bronze Grand Tour Bust of Antinous as Bacchus or Dionysus.
Antinous was the lover of Roman Emperor Hadrian (AD 76-138). Celebrated for his good looks, Antinous has subsequently become a symbol of same sex love. He drowned in the Nile in mysterious circumstance. Ancient Rome was governed by an unspoken code of dominance and subservience. There could be no suggestion that the Emperor was submissive to his lover. The effect of his death led to Hadrian establishing a City in Egypt, Antinoopolis in honour of the youth and encouraging his veneration as a God.
