Product Description

Four individuals in whose fortunes we should be glad to interest the reader happened to be standing in one of the saloons of the sculpture-gallery in the Capitol at Rome. It was that room (the first after ascending the staircase) in the centre of which reclines the noble and most pathetic figure of the Dying Gladiator just sinking into his death-swoon. (Excerpt)
