Rare ancient artwork and pictures
#12
I have posted this before but this seems to be a good opportunity to post it again, especially as, on his recent visit to Istanbul, Adrian Coombs-Hoar (ValentinianVictrix) found that it was no longer to be seen. Whether it has been destroyed or removed for preservation, we do not know. If anyone has any information on this, it would be most welcome. The relief is believed to have come from the Column of Theodosius and this picture was taken in 1976.

Strive mightily, but eat and drink as friends.
