This strikingly handsome and sensitive portrait head in the plastic Hadrianic-Antonine style of the mid-2nd century A.D. is similar to a portrait of the young Marcus Aurelius in the Capitoline Museum, Rome. It may represent a prince of the imperial family, one of the children of Antoninus Pius. The youthful innocence of this young man contrasts strongly with the more sophisticated and ambiguous portrait of a young man nearby.
