Antoninus,<br>
<br>
I oversaw Your remark about the Louvre helmets. You surely spoke about the so called praetorian relief. The last I heared about it was, that it should have been part of triumphal monument for emperor Claudius. But the Guisborough / Theilenhofen type came up much later...<br>
<br>
I read in Your personal information that You are living in Paris and therefor You are closest to the Louvre relief. Is it true that the heads of the three figures in front of the relief are lost in ancient times and have been restored in modern times?<br>
They would have modelled the helmets after the remaining helmets of the three figures in the background and these are clearly no Guisboroughs.<br>
