Image description

This late Roman head is of an emperor designate perhaps ten years old and is part of a group of portraits of the emperor Theodosius I and his sons. The boy, with down-cast eyes and a rather closed facial expression, wears a jeweled diadem and would probably have had a metal rayed crown with a central gemstone set behind the diadem. The portrait was completed just before the monolithic Roman Empire was divided between Honorius and his brother.
