It was moved to its current position at the end of the eightenth century, when the furnishings of the room were conceived to complement the sculpture, as documented by a drawing by the French architect Charles Percier (1764-1838). An explicit reference to Apollo is also constituted by the colossal marble head of the god dating from the second century B.C.E.
