With her center-parted hair cascading in undulating waves, framing her face and concealing most of her ears, this anonymous portrait is fashioned after Empress Faustina Minor, wife of Emperor Marcus Aurelius. For a related portrait also with the attributes of Faustina, see the example in the Vatican Museums, W. Amelung, <i>Die Sculpturen des Vaticanischen Museums</i>, vol. I, pl. 78. Of note, the chignon on this portrait is hollow, perhaps indicating that it was originally finished in another material.
