WTF is wrong with his legs
editWhat is wrong with the legs in the painting? He looks like he has two left legs. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.52.229.184 (talk) 01:13, 14 August 2017 (UTC)
- He was suffering from gout, which is why the thigh of his left leg and right ankle are swollen. Xanthomelanoussprog (talk) 13:24, 15 July 2018 (UTC)
- Actually, the anatomical inaccuracies are a known issue with this painting and have some interesting theories behind it. The German version of this article details this. If I find the time I'll translate that part and add it to this article. Crusoe704 (talk) 13:07, 28 August 2018 (UTC)

Tomb of Caecilia Metella
editThe monument in the background is Tomb of Caecilia Metella on Appia Antica. It would be useful to clarify that. The view is from North East - facing south East onto the Appia Antica, which runs - currently - the monument. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caecilia_Metella
And then, the southern parts of the Abruzzi mountain scape.
I may be mistaken - but doesn't the stone show the hooded emperor Augustus? I may be thinking about the Ara Pacis. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.160.132.206 (talk) 22:54, 9 July 2019 (UTC)
