介绍（中）	美索不达米亚与希腊罗马世界之间的互动——由亚历山大大帝的征服开始，继续在塞琉古时期涌入希腊商人和定居者，以及帕提亚时期罗马人在该地区的定居点——对公元一千年美索不达米亚艺术的风格、主题和技术产生了相当大的影响。这款制作精美的耳环由一个像爱神一样的有翅膀的男性青年组成，长长的卷发部分在额头上方打了一个顶结。他的双手放在臀部，一只翅膀向后折叠，而第二只翅膀不见了。他的下半身有一个悬挂环，上面挂着一张覆盖着颗粒（附着在表面的微小金颗粒）的三裂酒皮。这枚希腊神爱神爱神耳环和酒皮（一种与狄俄尼索斯崇拜相关的近东图案）的组合显示了对希腊文化的看似折衷的借鉴，这通常是这一时期近东艺术的特征。这只耳环的风格和主题可以追溯到帕提亚时期，它的出处表明它最初来自美索不达米亚。托马斯·霍普夫妇的名片伴随着耳环进入博物馆的收藏，背面是详细说明所有权历史的笔记，说明它是英国考古学家奥斯汀亨利莱亚德发现的，他是尼姆鲁德和尼尼微的挖掘者，大约在 1845 年。
介绍（英）	Interaction between Mesopotamia and the Greco-Roman world—initiated by the conquests of Alexander the Great, continuing with the influx of Greek merchants and settlers in the Seleucid period and Roman settlements in the area during the Parthian period—had a considerable impact on the style, subject matter, and technique of Mesopotamian art of the first millennium A.D. This exquisitely crafted earring consists of an Eros-like, winged male youth with long curly hair partly drawn up in a topknot above his forehead. His hands are on his hips and one wing is folded back while the second is missing. There is a suspension loop on his lower body from which hangs a three-lobed wineskin covered with granulation (minute granules of gold attached to the surface). The combination in this earring of Eros, a Greek deity, and the wineskin, a Near Eastern motif that became associated with the worship of Dionysos, shows the seemingly eclectic borrowing from Greek culture that often characterizes the art of the Near East in this period. The style and subject matter date this earring to the Parthian period, and its provenance suggests that it was originally from Mesopotamia. The calling card of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Hope accompanied the earring into the Museum's collection, and on the back are notes detailing the history of ownership, stating that it was found by British archaeologist Austen Henry Layard, excavator of Nimrud and Nineveh, around 1845.
