Young male bust (mailed) of early third century (pi. 51). H. -85 m., head and bust -68 m. Carrara marble. Restored : tip of nose, ears, part of neck, many patches on bust, foot. The beardless head looks to r. The surface of the face and neck is smooth and polished. The eyebrows are indicated, and the eyes have iris and pupil incised. The hair is treated as No. 62, but is thicker. Over the cuirass on the bust is a fringed paludamenlum clasped on the r. shoulder. There are no sufficient grounds f...or calling this head Hostilianus (v. Gaddi, p. 196), although Helbig thinks the identification possible. Bernoulli rightly rejects it. In style it is most like heads of Severus Alexander (v. Bernoulli, op. cit., pis. XXIX, XXX). Bottari, ii. 74; Mori, iv, Imp. 41, 2 ; Armellini, iv. 428, 2 ; Bernoulli, Rom. Ikon., ii. 3, p. 157 ; Helbig, i. 2 p. 315. And. 1611 ; M. 12211 (g). 73. Bearded Flavian head on Antonine bust (pi. 51). H. -73 m., head -28 m., bust -33 m. Head Greek marble, bust Luna marble.
