Terracotta figurine of Eros leaning on an inverted torch (therefore, more likely, he is Anteros), dating from the 3rd century AD. On display in the Ancient Agora Museum in Athens, housed in the Stoa of Attalus.
Figurina di Eros in terracotta, del secolo III d.C. Il fatto che il dio si appoggi ad una torcia capovolta (e quindi in via di spegniomento) fa pensare che si tratti del suo opposto, Anteros. Esposto nel Museo dell'antica agorà ad Atene, alloggiato nello Stoà di Attalo.
