Description
Marble portrait head that bears some resemblance to Trajan. In particular the mouth, with the receding lower lip and flaming nasolabial folds. However, the hair is not typical of representations of Trajan, who usually had long locks combed forward across the crown. Here, the rows of short, curving locks, the forward row, low on the forehead, are similar to Nerva, Trajan's predecessor. 1st-2nd century BC.
