PLATE LXIII
Romulus and Remus
This archaic Italian bronze is commonly interpreted as representing the she-wolf suckling Romulus and Remus in the wild lands near the Tiber; it may have originally referred, however, to other legendary characters who were said to have been similarly reared. From a bronze in the Conservatory Museum, Rome (Brunn—Bruckmann, Denkmäler griechischer und römischer Sculptur, No. 318). See p. 307.
