Descripción
One of the titles given to Alexander the Great was Helios, the sun king. This idealised portrait has Alexander’s characteristic wild thick hair, but it partially tied back with a band around his head. There are holes in the band where a metal radiate crown would have been attached, hence this piece’s name.
The original is thought to date from at least a century after Alexander’s death in 323 B.C.
Roman copy of a larger-than-life Hellenistic head.
