The piece? Sleeping Hermaphroditus.

Found in Diocletian's baths and dating back to 100-500CE. This figure is an intersex figure, with breasts, a beautiful feminine form and a penis.

They represent the god/mythical being Hermaphrodite. A fusion of a female nymph and a young man into a single body.

But, here's the catch. Lely was a Greek history nerd. He loved showing off that he is well-read in the classics. Just like many other artists like him, he used classical sculpture to inspire his poses.

Do you see the nymph facing away from us in the foreground? They are based on a famous sculpture.
