L’Empereur romain Hadrien (117-138) regardant les fesses de son favori et amant Antinoüs (Aντίνοoς, Antinoos). La photo a été prise lors de d’une exposition, en 2018, consacrée à ce même Antinoüs à l’Ashmolean Museum d’Oxford.
Fait intéressant, l’ami qui m’a transmis cette image me signale l’avoir trouvé sur Bluesky, où elle a été publiée par le compte « Museum Bum », que l’on pourrait traduire librement pas « Les fesses au musé », animé par Jack Shoulder et Mark Small, à l’occasion de la publication d’un ouvrage sur le sujet...

The #AshmoleanMuseum in Oxford has done the right thing and has started #repatriation of this sculpture. More of this.
Qualcuno al Ministero della Cultura dovrebbe prendere nota...
One of the items in the Ashmolean collection was a stuffed Dodo, the last ever dodo seen in Europe. However, by 1755 the stuffed dodo was so moth-eaten that it was destroyed, except for its head and one claw.
Ten things you might not know about the Ashmolean Museum.

As Britain’s industrial revolution gained pace, scientific breakthroughs allowed the Victorians to become increasingly revolutionary in their use of colour!
The Ashmolean Museum's current major exhibition explores this explosion of colour, embraced by artists and designers. #AcademicHeritageDay2023

I feel like this Knossos exhibit at the #AshmoleanMuseum missed two great merchandising opportunities 
1. Puzzles of fresco fragments where you have to fill in the missing pieces with color pencil
2. Replicas of seal stones
(In fact, any museum selling replica seals will automatically become Best Museum in my book)
Guess who got loot today from Oxford
Powerful and intriguing works by Dia al-Azzawi in a small exhibition at the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford #AshmoleanMuseum #DiaalAzzawi

@morethanadodo It's a beautiful place with an excellent cafe and not a stones throw from the #AshmoleanMuseum

Wow ! What a result ! Must be so satisfying throwing a pot. Just edited a few clips from a film we made for the Ashmoleon museum many years ago. Respect to Sutton Taylor. Just look at the end result. Beautiful. The lustre comes from straight from the Cornish rocks. It was incredible to meet Sutton. A talented and kind man. Music Tim Mountain

portrait of Elizabeth 'Lizzie' Siddal (herself an #artist) by #Rossetti, her husband, who she had a sometimes tempestuous relationship with, at the #AshmoleanMuseum
#PreRaphaelites exhibition in #Oxford. Apparently when she died Rossetti put some poems he'd written in her grave, and then, when his friends suggested the poems were actually quite good, arranged to have them dug them again.

saw this painting by Dante Gabriel #Rossetti (a study for a larger work) at the #PreRaphaelites exhibition at the #AshmoleanMuseum in #Oxford yesterday (tomorrow is the final day). My friend and I thought she looked like a #glamorous old-school Hollywood #diva

@kentaylor47 I find it inspiring too! Glad you enjoyed seeing it. Will try to post a few more pics from the #AshmoleanMuseum #PreRaphaelites exhibition later.
