Roma with She-Wolf, Romulus, and Remus above the Tiber River [reverse]

Leone Leoni

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a circular sculpture. On the left side, a figure with long flowing robes is seated on a raised structure, holding a staff. A goat is lying next to this figure. On the right side, another figure sits at a lower level with a beard and long hair, one arm resting on a bent knee. The letters "S" and "C" are inscribed on the surface. The material of the sculpture appears to be a copper or bronze alloy, giving it a rich golden hue with patina indicating age. The scene is encased within a circular border.
