After the Great Fire of Rome in 64 AD, Nero claimed a large swath of the destroyed city to build the Domus Aurea (the Golden House). Spanning nearly 100 acres across the Palatine, Esquiline, and Oppian Hills, the complex was famous for its revolving dining rooms, ceilings that showered guests with flower petals, and walls covered in gold leaf.To decorate the vestibule of this mega-palace, he hired the Greek sculptor Zenodorus to cast a giant bronze figure modeled after the Colossus of Rhodes.
