Some notes
The mosaic, called also Plato's Academy, is , at present, in the
National Archaeological Museum in Naples (Museo Archeologico Nazionale di
Napoli) .
A second copy, made around one century after, was discovered in Sarsina
(Italy) in the XVIII century and it is nowin the Villa Albani, in Rome.
The original has gone lost.
