Long description

This image shows a marble sculpture portraying the head, neck and shoulders of a young-middle-aged man. His chest and shoulders are bare. His hair is cut relatively short, but long enough to show loose locks of curls combed loosely toward his forehead. On his head he wears a large wreath made up of (laurel) leaves, held together at the back with a wide ribbon, the ends of which drape down over his shoulders. 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.
