Today we talk about education Nero , Cordoba sculpture made of white marble, where we can see Seneca instructing the Emperor Nero that sits on a throne, a highlight of this magnificent piece of drapery treatment and composition of the work, in which we can contrast the attitudes of both, Seneca shows us involved in his task of educating and where we can see Nero with an attitude a little sloppy, meditation and even not be aware of their teacher.
We note as a curiosity, that the sculpture is made like a classical Roman sculpture and even has touches that give an antique flavor, such as the polychrome sculpture has in some areas as we can see in the mantle of Nero and Seneca's robe, as if he had completely lost the polychrome over the years.
