SECOND HALF 19TH EARLY 20TH CENTURY

First recorded in 1611 after having just been found at Nettuno, the original was in the Borghese collection by 1613. It was subsequently placed in a room named after the sculpture on the ground floor of the Villa Borghese. The sculpture was purchased by Napoleon Bonaparte, brother-in-law of Camillo Borghese, in 1807 and placed in the Salle d'Apollon of the Musée Napoléon. The original is today at the Musée du Louvre.
