The 1st Century bronze originals of this pair of centaurs, which were themselves copies of a 2nd Century B.C. Hellenistic pair, were found together at Hadrian's villa in Tivoli by Monsignor Giuseppe Alessandro Furietti in 1736. After his death they were sold by the family and have been in the Capitoline Museums since.
