Bust of Lucius Licinius Nepos in the Getty Villa, June 2016
Title: Bust of L. Licinius Nepos
Artist/Maker: Unknown
Date: A.D. 1–25
Medium: Marble
Dimensions: 37.5 × 26 × 17.5 cm (14 3/4 × 10 1/4 × 6 7/8 in.)
Place: Rome, Lazio, Italy (Place Created)
Culture: Roman
Object Number: 85.AA.111
Inscription(s): Inscription: L LICINIUS NEPOS / QUI HANC CASULAM / FECIT
Alternate Titles: Bust of Lucius Licinius Nepos (Alternate Title)
Department: Antiquities
Classification: Sculpture
Object Type: Male portrait
An inscription identifies this stern-faced man with strong features and a receding hairline as L. Licinius Nepos. The back of the head was made from a separate piece of marble and is now lost. Two attachment holes are visible on the roughly finished surface of the large portion, as well as the remains of an iron dowel in one of them.
The bust was made for display in a family tomb, as the inscription asserts, L. LICINIVS NEPOS / QVI HANC CASVLAM / FECIT (This is L. Licinius Nepos who made this little house [for his ashes]). A longer funerary inscription found near Porta Pinciana, outside Rome, in 1756, also names Nepos as the builder of the tomb and indicates that he was a tradesman.
