More information
The Dying Gaul is a Roman marble copy of a Hellenistic bronze sculpture from the 2nd century BC. The copy was made during the 1st century AD.
The sculpture was discovered around 1620 and acquired in 1737 by Pope Clement XII for the Capitoline Museums. In accordance with the Treaty of Tolentino in 1797, the sculpture was taken to Paris and the Musée central des arts, but it was returned to Rome in 1815, partly through the efforts of Antonio Canova.
