Asset Overview

Antinous was a Bithynian youth and lover of the Roman emperor Hadrian. Antinous was deified after his mysterious death: drowned in the Nile. Antinous was identified with Osiris due to the manner of his death, and the cult of Antinous soon spread throughout the Roman Empire. To this day, many excellent sculptural examples of Antinous' likeness survive.
