| Beschrijving keerzijde | Full-length figure of Artemis advancing to the right, draped in a short chiton and wearing a crown, holding a stag by the antlers with her left hand and grasping a bow or torch-like object in her right hand; a small stag appears at her feet to the left. The goddess is rendered in a dignified, striding pose typical of Alexandrian provincial bronzes, with drapery falling in naturalistic folds. The regnal date legend is disposed around the figure in the field. The type reflects the Hellenistic religious iconography favoured at Alexandria under Hadrian. |

Year 19 of Hadrian's reign in Egypt — rendered in the regnal dating system Alexandria used throughout the Roman period — places this piece in the emperor's final decade, after his extensive tours of the eastern provinces had concluded. Hadrian visited Egypt in 130 AD, a trip that ended with the drowning of his companion Antinous in the Nile and the founding of Antinoöpolis in his memory. Alexandrian bronzes from the years immediately following that visit carry an outsized historical weight entirely invisible in the metal itself.
