Quote:Usually hinges are seen on the right side, only because we can hardly ever see the left side, because there is usually an arm or cloak in the way. It's very frustrating.
My suspicion is that the arm flap is on both sides, but we can only see it on the right.
The statue of Constantine the Great seems to be one of the few exceptions - we can see his left arm pit. Neither the flap nor hinges can be seen.
