Modern Publication(s): CIG 6141; Michaelis, Ancient Marbles, p. 345-7
Brief description: base with signature.
Attributes
Inscription Type: Artist's signature
Object Type: Base
Material: Marble
Original Location: Unknown
Provenance: Unknown: according to Ashmole, the statue group was 'found about AD 1760, in the Tenuta di Salone on the Via Praenestina, and the restorer joined it with the plinth'. Michaelis suggests that the group was united with the plinth -- found at the same place on the same date -- by Nic. La Piccola.
Date: Perhaps a modern forgery (Franz in CIG and Ashmole). Furtwangler (cited by Ashmole) thought that it was ancient; Visconti (cited by Michelis) thought that it was an ancient fabrication, given the fame of the ancient Boupalos of Chios.
Dimensions: Base: L. 0.70 m; W. 0.50m.
Layout: The inscription is located 'on the narrow side under the feet'. (Michaelis)
Writing: Inscribed
Condition: Restored
