| Description |
English: The tetrarchs (from the Greek words for "Four rules") were the four co-rulers that governed the Roman Empire as long as Diocletian's reform lasted. Here they were portraied embracing, in sign of harmony, in a porphyry sculpture dating from the 4th century, produced in Asia Minor, today on a corner of Saint Mark's in Venice, next to the "Porta della Carta".
Italiano: I tetrarchi (dal greco "quattro regnanti") furono i quattro co-regnanti che governarono l'impero romano durante la riforma di Diocleziano. Sono ritratti mentre si abbracciano, in segno di concordia e armonia, in una scultura in porfido del IV secolo d.C., di provenienza orientale, oggi a Venezia sull'angolo di San Marco, accanto alla "Porta della Carta".
