Description:

|
Dates from the beginning of the second century CE, found in the area of S. Stefano Rotondo. It is sometimes called the "Fonseca Bust" because it was donated by Father Giuseppe Fonseca to Pope Benedict XIV (1740-1758). It is an extraordinary masterpiece of ancient sculpture, both for the expressive power of the face as well as for for technical expertise in reproducing the incredible hair style. The hairstyle dates the bust to the Flavian period, which ended in 96 CE. (Source: Wikipedia; http://en.wikipedia. org/wiki/Main_Page)
