The British Museum display, to be called Desire Love Identity: exploring LGBTQ histories, is one of many exhibitions and events taking place in 2017. There will be figurines from the mid-1920s made by the German artist Augusta Kaiser which shine light on her lesbian partnership with the expressionist artist Hedwig Marquardt, highlighting a biographical detail that almost slipped through the records. The oldest is a phallic stone sculpture that shows two figures making love, whose genders are open to question.

Visitors will also be directed to the prints gallery where curators plan to display David Hockney’s series of sometimes homoerotic illustrations made for the poetry of CP Cavafy, one of the earliest modern authors to write about same-sex love.įrost said the display, opening in May, would have objects from 9000BC to the present day. The Warren Cup, a Roman silver drinking vessel.

For example, the Warren Cup is a Roman silver drinking vessel that many visitors look at but perhaps don’t inspect closely enough to see two explicit sex scenes – one between two teenage boys and the other a young man lowering himself on his older, bearded lover. Some of them are more obvious than others. Visitors will be encouraged to go on a trail through the museum to find other objects that may have LBGTQ (lesbian, bisexual, gay, transgender, queer) stories. Not far from the planned exhibit are marble busts of Hadrian and Antinous that are always side by side, part of the museum’s permanent display. “It was a way of local cities being able to express their allegiance and sympathies to the emperor,” said Abdy. In one case a statue of Apollo was hastily replaced with the face of Antinous. Hadrian founded the Egyptian city of Antinopolis in the boy’s memory and had him deified, while other cities queued up to produce coins with the head of Antinous as well as creating or converting statues in his honour. Whatever happened, Hadrian was grief-stricken – he “wept like a woman”, according to the Historia Augusta – a level of grief for a boy lover that was unprecedented. The exact circumstances of his death are unknown, with one account saying Antinous had hurried into the river to purify the lion’s blood by pouring some of it into the water. Not much is known of Antinous’s life or how he became a favourite of the emperor, but it is known that he was an attendant during a lion hunt in Libya in 130 and that he drowned in the Nile.

Could Hadrian have been in love with him? Photograph: Graeme Robertson/The Guardianīut it is the intensity of the emperor’s grief when Antinous died that has always been striking to historians. “He would have been part of a harem of boys, maybe girls as well.”Īlloy coin with bare head of Antinous (left) next to silver medallion with bust of Hadrian. “It is not like a modern gay romance,” said Richard Abdy, curator of Roman coins. Hadrian, who was emperor from AD117 to 138, was far from the only Roman emperor to sleep with boys. Hopefully we may be able to use them further down the line.”Īmong the objects going on display are a particularly impressive silver medallion of Hadrian and a coin bearing the head of Antinous. “There are so many works here … it is hard to stop, I keep finding things. The project was inspired by the 2013 book A Little Gay History by Richard Parkinson, a former curator in the museum’s ancient Egypt department, and there was a lot to go at, said Frost. The display’s co-curator Stuart Frost, head of interpretation at the museum, is bringing together objects that might challenge assumptions we make when we look at items not from our time. Galleries and museums across the country will celebrate the anniversary with a blizzard of exhibitions and events, with the British Museum putting on a display that shines light on the gay histories that are often overlooked or hidden in its vast collections – “a great unrecorded history”, as EM Forster put it.
