Marble sculpture that inspired by the characteristic busts-portraits of the Roman Empire.
It is in the portrait that Rome gives its most characteristic contribution to the tradition founded by the Greeks, a contribution that has matured much earlier than in other types of sculptures and that made the development of sculpture in Rome divided into two fields, with different evolution patterns, the portrait and the other types. From the time of the Republic the portrait was highly valued and over time it oscillated cyclically between an idealizing classicist tendency and another of great realism, derived in part from the expressiveness typical of Hellenistic art. And among the portraits, the bust and the head were the most frequent forms. Full-length portraits were less common, though not rare. The preference for the bust and the head is a typical Roman cultural feature that created a huge market throughout the Mediterranean basin, and it is explained first, for economic reasons, being much cheaper than a complete statue, but also for the conviction of a better individual identification that prevailed among them. For the Romans it was the head and not the body or the costumes or accessories, the attributes of the center of interest in the portrait."
