Summary[edit]

Description
English: Ritratto di Antinoo, marmo greco, Impero romano, Secondo secolo
Gallerie degli Uffizi, Firenze www.uffizi.it/

Portrait of Antinous, Greek Marble, Roman Empire (130-140 circa) -Uffizi, Florence www.uffizi.it/en

Questo ritratto giunse in Galleria nel 1676. I lineamenti del volto sono quelli di Antinoo, amante dell'imperatore Adriano (117-138), noto per la sua prematura e alquanto misteriosa morte nelle acque del Nilo nel 130. L'eleganza delle forme e l'impostazione del busto ricordano da vicino il cosiddetto "Apollo del Tevere", a cui l'artista si ispirò nel tentativo di rendere al meglio l'idea di una fisicità sospesa fra la giovinezza e l'età adulta.

This portrait entered the Gallery in 1676. Its facial features are those of Antinous, lover of the Emperor Hadrian (117-138), known for his premature and somewhat mysterious death in the waters of the Nile in 130. The elegance of form and design of the bust are closely reminiscent of the so called "Tiber Apollo", from which the artist drew his inspiration in a attempt to do full justice to the idea of a physique suspended between youth and adulthood.
