Commentary
Avec son argenture superficielle. Portrait particulier. Semble complètement inédit et non répertorié avec un cerf au lieu d’une antilope.
With its superficial silvering. A peculiar portrait. Appears to be completely unpublished and unrecorded, with a deer instead of an antelope.

Historical background
SALONINA

Wife of Gallienus, mother of Valerian II and Saloninus - Augusta
Salonine, the wife of Gallien, seems to receive the title of augusta in 253, when her husband is associated with power by Valerian I. She loses at least two of her children, young Valérien and Salonin. She is murdered at the same time as her husband. Salonina is said to have had Christian sympathies.
