FIRST GRiECO-ROMAN ROOM. 
This and the two succeeding rooms are, for the most part, 
appropriated to statues, busts, and reliefs, of the mixed class 
termed Grseco-Roman, consisting of works discovered (so far 
as is known) in Italy, but of which the style and subject 
have been derived, either directly or indirectly, from the 
Greek schools of sculpture. Some few of these may, per- 
haps, be original Hellenic works, transported by the Romans- 
to Italy, but the majority were certainly executed in Italy 
during the Imperial times, though generally by Greek artists, 
and in many instances copied, or but slightly varied, from 
earlier Greek models. 
Along the sides of the room, commencing from the North- 
west angle, are the following statues and heads : — 
North Side. — A headless figure of Minerva, from Ephesus, 
and a head of Minerva. Against the western column are a 
Canephora and a small seated figure of Pluto or Hades, with 
whose attributes those of Jupiter are here combined. At the back 
of the same column is a bust of Minerva, with drapery and helmet 
restored in bronze, and at the back of the eastern column a statue 
of Hekate, or the Diana Triformis, with a Latin inscription record- 
ing the name of the person who dedicated it. Against tbe Eastern 
column are a statue of Apollo, from the Farnese Palace, and a bust 
of Serapis. Against the wall is a statue of Ceres, with the attributes 
of Isis. 
On the East side of the room an heroic figure, and a Satyr playing 
with the infant Bacchus, both from the Farnese Palace. 
On the South side are a statue of Bacchus found at Cyrene, a head 
of Juno, a statue of Diana, a head of Diana, a statue of Apollo 
Citharcedus from Cyrene, a head of Apollo, a statue of Venus, a 
terminal bust of Homer, a statue of a dancing Satyr, a head of a 
poet, and a statue of Diana. 
On the West side of the room are a torso of a youth from the 
Farnese Palace, perhaps representing the god Somnus, a head of 
Jupiter, a head of Minerva, and a colossal bust of Jupiter.
