[QUOTE="Julius Germanicus, post: 3161083, member: 80783"]On my trip to Oslo last weekend I "had to" visit the National Art Museum in order to let my family see Edvard Munch´s "Scream". But to my surprise I was rewarded with the sight of some marble busts of Roman Emperors in the antique section. There were no numismatic items there, so as this forum is about coins, I´ll accompany the marble heads with the corresponding portraits from my Sestertius gallery: [B]Nero[/B] [ATTACH=full]811423[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]811430[/ATTACH] [B]Marcus Aurelius[/B] [ATTACH=full]811422[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]811429[/ATTACH] [B]Elagabalus [ATTACH=full]811431[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]811428[/ATTACH] [/B] [B]Severus Alexander[/B] [ATTACH=full]811424[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]811427[/ATTACH] And finally in the Renaissance section I saw this terracotta [I]"Head of an unidentified man"[/I], dating from ca. 1500 (from the workshop of Andrea della Robbia): [ATTACH=full]811433[/ATTACH] What do you think - doesn´t he look a lot like Hadrian???[/QUOTE]
