The Townley Antinous is a marble portrait head of the Greek youth Antinous , the boyfriend or lover of the Roman Emperor Hadrian , wearing an ivy wreath . It is now part of the collection of London's British Museum , and was part of the Townley Marbles .[1] c. 130–140 and the late reign of Hadrian (r. 117–138[2] Dionysus–Bacchus .[2] Grand Tourist and Fellow of the Royal Society , Charles Townley . A drawing of the bust attributed to Vincenzo Pacetti is also in the museum's collection.[3]
The head, carved from Parian marble , was believed to have been found on the Janiculum hill near the Villa Doria Pamphili in Rome in 1770, in an area then known as Italian : Tenuta della Tedesca , lit. [2] spolia Porta San Pancrazio , a gate in the Aurelian Walls .[2] Thomas Jenkins , the antiquary and art dealer, for £150. The head was already in Britain by June 1774, probably having been owned previously by John Sackville, 3rd Duke of Dorset , from whom Jenkins wrote in July 1773 that it was "to be received".[2]
