Quote:It is not unique to see a cornu portrayed either, as one exists in a Pompeii wall painting.
There's a cornicen in a gladiatorial relief from Isernia. I have a picture at home, I'll try to remember to get it tonight.
Quote:I'll try to go soon to the etruscan museum of Villa Giulia, where the panels will be for one month, to take pics, if allowed...
As I recall, the Villa Giulia Museum is one of the strictest about not taking photographs! I find it's helpful to go in a large group, who can cluster around the cameraman as he takes pictures from stomach-level. :wink:
