Romeinse sculptuur van Matidia Minor 1885 - 1895

This is a photograph of a marble bust of Matidia Minor, the daughter of Emperor Titus. The bust was likely made in the late 1st century AD, but this photograph was taken between 1885 and 1895 by an anonymous photographer. The bust is a typical example of Roman portraiture and it shows the subject with a detailed and realistic depiction, including her characteristic hairstyle of elaborate curls. The photograph was taken in Rome, and the inscription on the base of the bust identifies the subject as "Giulia figlia di Tito," the Italian for Julia, daughter of Titus. This photograph was a popular souvenir item in the late 19th century and provides a glimpse into the fascination with Roman art during this period.
