With her center-parted wavy hair cascading in undulating waves, framing her face and concealing most of her ears, the anonymous subject of this portrait fashioned herself 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, Die Sculpturen des Vaticanischen Museums, vol. I, pl. 78. Of note, the chignon on this portrait is hollow, perhaps indicating that it was finished in another material in antiquity.
