Catalogue Note
Ce bronze est une réduction du célèbre antique Antinoüs du Belvédère, acquis par le Pape Paul III Farnèse en 1543. L'original en marbre, unanimement admiré dès les premiers temps de sa découverte, fut abondamment reproduit, en toutes tailles et différents matériaux, pour être diffusé dans toute l'Europe.
