Summary[edit]

Description
English: The Farnese Bull dates to the Severian period (A.D. 222-235) and is the largest single sculpture ever recovered from antiquity. It depicts the myth of Dirce, first wife of Lykos, King of Thebes, who was tied to a wild bull by the sons of Antiope, Amphion and Zethus, who wanted to punish her for the ill treatment inflicted on their mother. The sculpture was unearthed in 1546 during excavations at the Roman Baths of Caracalla. Formerly in the Farnese collection in Rome, it has been in the collection of the Museo Archeologico Nazionale Napoli in Naples since 1826.
