HISTORIC PROVENANCE

The Bust of a Youth echoes the idealized Roman head (117–161 CE) from The Met collection, sculpted during the Hadrianic or Early Antonine periods. The polished flesh, sharply defined eyes, and intricate locks of hair mimic the classicizing style of bronze sculptures, later replicated in marble during Emperor Hadrian's reign in the early 2nd century CE.
