The bust was created after the tragic death of the young man in 130 as one of many similar portraits as part of his posthumous cult. he sculpture was found by Gavin Hamilton during the excavations of Hadrian's Villa in Tivoli. Later the bust was bought by Ivan Shuvalov. Under Emperor Paul I of Russia, the bust became part of an allegorical composition preceding the entrance to the Throne Hall of the Gatchina Palace.[1][2][3]
