Contenuto

Il riconoscimento di un ritratto di Nerone in una collezione inglese, ha dato l’avvio a una serie di indagini conoscitive e a interventi di restauro. Si presentano i risultati ripercorrendo gli episodi salienti del regno di Nerone, quinto imperatore della dinastia Giulio Claudia, rivissuti attraverso le immagini. Il ritratto mostra un Nerone degli ultimi anni della sua vita e si confronta con l’iconografia su monete e sculture.
