Long description

This image shows a marble sculpture portraying the head, neck, chest and shoulders of a young-middle-aged man. He is wearing a loose tunic with short, pleated sleeves, a cuirass and a large cloak draped over his chest and shoulders, fastened at his right shoulder with a large, disc-shaped brooch. His hair is cut relatively short, but long enough to show loose locks of curls combed loosely toward his fore-head. On his head he wears a large wreath made up of (laurel) leaves. His face is gracile, his mouth is small and set in a neutral position, his nose is long and narrow, and he has a cleft chin.
