Both reliefs can be related to myths representd on other works of Greek Art, but both are ambiguous. The Ludovisi Throne's link to Locri gives some referential to the myths depicted, but because of the Boston Throne's extreme ambiguity, the confusing representation of the myths alone has led to the assumption that it is a fake. |
