The Augusta Posted October 4, 2007 Report Share Posted October 4, 2007 Well - I'll be blowed.... I was sure I had that one! OK - the only member of the dynasty left - is it Lucius Verus? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Augusta Posted October 4, 2007 Report Share Posted October 4, 2007 Erm...strike my last answer. I've done it again, haven't I, Asc? I said it looked like a young beardless Marcus Aurelius...... But as it's very late and I have to go to bed - please feel free to load another pic if you like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Augusta Posted October 6, 2007 Report Share Posted October 6, 2007 (edited) OK - this is going to drive me mad - because I know the bust so well, but can't just bring the name to mind. It's definitely Julio-Claudian or late Republic/early Principate (same period, anyway). I am multi-tasking at the moment so give me a little time...) I may even have this on my hard drive - will go and look..... Just a quick first time guess - Drusus.

Ingsoc Posted October 6, 2007 Report Share Posted October 6, 2007 It's Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa, I think it's the bust from the Altes Museum in Berlin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Augusta Posted October 6, 2007 Report Share Posted October 6, 2007 Yep - same shout from me. I think Ingsoc has it - even though its not a 'typey' Agrippa bust (I'm making him sound like a Persian cat!) Has Ingsoc got it, Asc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
