Forum Romanum - Marble wall of the Comitium in 1874. Photographer: Unknown
- Scope & Content:
-
On the wall to the left are seen the three animals prepared for sacrifice (the boar, the ram, and the bull). On the right hand wall, part of the procession going up to the Emperor Hadrian, with the tablets of their debts to be cancelled and burnt, some of them thrown in a heap on the ground. The other part of the procession is at the back of the other wall. The basement of these walls is of stone, of the time of the Republic, with a modern base of marble introduced upon it. The sculpture was found in fragments, and cleverly put together by Signor Rosa, but it is the general opinion of antiquaries that the two walls have been reversed when replaced, that the animals ought to be seen on the exterior.'
