Black and white engravings of Roman emperor Hadrian (Adriano), 10-1/4 x 16-1/2 inches; Roman emperor Nero (Nerone) 10-1/4 x 14 inches; and Antinous (Antinoo) also 10-1/4 x 14 inches. Antinous was a favorite youth of Hadrian there being a 35-year age difference between them. After the young man died under mysterious circumstances in his late teens or early twenties, Hadrian deified him and established a worship cult around his name and image. These are printed on thick paper with some water staining on Nero and Antinous. Hadrian's image has a remaining portion of an onion skin cover. See photos for size, condition, and design details.
