"Close up of a Roman Sebasteion relief  sculpture of Io and Argos Aphrodisias Museum, Aphrodisias, Turkey.  Against an art background.<br /> <br /> A powerful hero is folding a sword gazing closely at a half naked and dishevelled young heroine who sits on a chest like stool. Between, on a pillar base stood a small, separately added statue of a goddess ( now missing). The scene follows a scheme used in the relief panels ""Io guarded by Argos"". Io was one of Zeus's lovers, and Argos was a watchful giant sent to guard her by Hera, Zeus's wife."
