Lamp: discus fragment with erotic scene

Fragment of a discus, slightly concave, chipped on one end. The discus is surrounded by a double groove and is decorated with a scene of lovemaking involving three (?) people. Light pinkish buff clay with no remaining glaze. Depictions of lovemaking were frequent in Roman art, both public and private, appearing especially in dining settings, including on cups and frescoed walls, in public baths, and on common household items, such as lamps and ceramics. The form of this lamp corresponds with Broneer Type 22.
