Republican Portrait of a Man in the Walters Art Museum, September 2009
Portrait of a Man
Creator: Roman (Artist)
Period: ca. 40 BC (late Republican)
Medium: Pentelic marble (Sculpture)
Accession Number: 23.209
Measurements: 12 1/16 x 7 1/8 x 9 in. (30.6 x 18.1 x 22.9 cm)
Geographies: Italy (Place of Origin), Mount Pentelikon (Source of Materials)
During the Republic, men in power wanted their portraits to express the qualities they associated with leadership: experience, determination, practicality, and valor. Such an image tended to have a realistic appearance, with a direct gaze and heavily lined face.
