Description
The flat fillet worn by this young man is an insignium of kingship. He has been identified as one of the Macedonian Greek kings who rules the new kingdoms formed in the lands that Alexander the Great had conquered in the late fourth century B.C. The head was once part of the collection of antiquities formed in the early seventeenth century in Rome by the Marchese Vincenzo Giustiniani.
The bust is of Roman origin from the Imperial period, circa the 1st or 2nd century A.D.
