dc.descriptionView into the right side of the portico, depicting the right lateral bas-relief and the adjacent relief; [The Temple of Hadrian dates from the 2nd century but underwent repairs in the 4th century and has been re-erected from the surviving architectural fragments. The reliefs in the upper sections are casts, the originals now in the Selçuk Archaeological Museum. A number of figures are depicted in the reliefs, including the emperor Theodisius I with his wife and eldest son.] "Three Corinthian temples date from the 2nd century AD: that of Hadrian, originally built for Trajan, with a Syrian arch and a figural frieze partly added in Late Antiquity; the Serapeion, and a large peripteral structure on the harbour plain. A high point in Roman architectural ornament was reached in the Hadrianic period in the Temple of Hadrian and the Library of Celsus. Here the whole repertory of contemporary ornament appears: strigilation, fish-scale pattern, vegetal and animal motifs. Column capitals also demonstrate a development from the pure Corinthian form to the more elaborate Composite order found in the Trajanic period at the Nymphaeum of Trajan."
