EDITORS COMMENTS
This 18th century print depicts Antinous, a beloved figure in ancient Roman history and mythology. Antinous was a Greek youth and favorite of the Roman Emperor Hadrian (Publius Aelius Hadrianus Augustus, 76-138 AD). Their relationship was celebrated publicly, and after Antinous' untimely death in Egypt, Hadrian ordered the deification of his lover. Antinous was worshiped as a god, with temples and cults established in his honor throughout the Roman Empire. This print, likely an engraving, captures the idealized image of Antinous as a handsome and youthful man. He is depicted in profile, with flowing hair and a thoughtful expression. The black and white contrast adds to the timeless and classical feel of the image. The location of this print is unknown, but it is now part of the collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA). The museum's extensive holdings of heritage art reflect the rich cultural history of Greece and Rome, and this print is a testament to the enduring appeal of the ancient world. Antinous and Hadrian's relationship challenged societal norms and continues to be a topic of fascination and study in modern times. This print serves as a reminder of the complexities and nuances of ancient Roman society, and the enduring power of love and devotion.
