Description

Acerra near Formia (Italy) Marble, 37 - 54 AD This portrait of Claudius was reworked from a statue of his predecessor Caligula, who had been condemned to damnation of memory after his violent death. Thus, only the fringe lock and facial features were changed to those of Claudius, whereas the older hairstyle on the top and back of the head remained untouched.
