Description
The Roman emperor Caracalla ruled from 211 to 217 Ad. He is known for his short beard, facial features and scowling expression. The breastplate shows the terrifying Gorgon, Medusa, in the centre. This image was believed to protect the Emperor. The bust may have once been owned by Cardinal Fesch, an uncle of Napoleon.
