...funerary masks were very common in past centuries...one of the most impressive I know is from Beethoven...

..plotting those here is a nice tribute to the past, William...well done...

These types of portraits have always caught my attention. I think these are from Egypt, maybe?

Anton, these specific ones are from the Roman Empire. I know Egypt and elsewhere have produced great funerary portraits.
