A statute to the homosexual and the homoerotic

My favourite statute at the British Museum.

This is a statue of Ganymede (Roman copy of Greek original).

Ganymede was a Greco-Romano coda or symbol of same-sex attraction in classical mythology and art. (Technically, not "homosexuality" as we understand it today.)

But, I like to us gays represented, and looking gorgeous. 😎
