Description

  • Italiano: I tetrarchi (dal greco "quattro regnanti") furono i quattro co-regnanti che governarono l'impero romano durante la riforma di Diocleziano. Qui sono ritratti mentre si abbracciano, in segno di concordia e armonia, in una scultura in porfido del IV secolo d.C., di provenienza orientale, oggi a Venezia sull'angolo di San Marco, accanto alla " Porta della Carta".
  • Italiano: The tetrarchs (from the Greek words for "Four rules") were the four co-rulers that governed the Roman Empire as long as Diocletian's reform lasted. Here they were portraied embracing, in sign of harmony, in a porphyry sculpture dating from the 4th century, produced in Asia Minor, today on a corner of Saint Mark's in Venice, next to the " Porta della Carta".
