Römischer Konsul mit Vollbart, Büste, Skulptur, Antike, römischer Konsul

16. Jahrhundert

The white marble bust shows a bearded Roman consul. Base and head are made of white alabaster. It might be a 16th century copy of an antique original piece or a fake of an antique statue. Such small busts, depicting roman or greek statesmen or philosophers, were essential parts of studioli and antique collections (antiquarium) in the Renaissance.
