Caput Caesaris

In case some of you didn’t see this - the Frenchies had a wonderful find in the Rhone:
bust 670920c

They believe the life-sized representation, showing a balding man in his fifties, dates from about 46 B.C., two years before his assassination.

A spokesman for the French culture ministry said it was “the oldest representation yet known of Caesar” and “typical of a series of realistic portraits from the period of the (Roman) republic.”
