L'Antinoo Farnese -- Galleria Carracci, Palazzo Farnese --.

Speranza



The "Antinoo Farnese" is a specific marble sculptural representation of Antinoo, named after its one-time owners the Farnese family.

It was once displayed at the entrance to the Carracci Gallery in the Palazzo Farnese in Rome, from which it was taken to Naples to the Royal Borbonic Museum (Reale Museo Borbonico), now the Naples National Archaeological Museum (a replica was put in place in the Palazzo in the 1970s).
