Description
This Roman male portrait bust was created in the age of Trajan (98-117 AD), found near Tor Sapienza before Porta Maggiore in 1830 or 1831. The original is housed in The Chiaramonti Museum (New wing, 102, Vatican Museums).
The identity of the man is unknown, though there are studies to suggest it portraits Marcus Aemilius Lepidus, a powerful Roman and supporter of Julius Caesar and Marc Antony - made 'Master of the Horse' in 44 BC.
The work was found alongside a Bust of Marcus Antonius (KAS 200, also downloadable here).
