Philip the Arab Head, Roman Emperor Portrait Sculpture for Library and Study Decor

Bring a Roman imperial portrait to a bookshelf, study or history collection. This sculptural head preserves the short hair, beard and worn details of the museum source, with a trimmed neck that rests on a flat underside.

The source is an ancient Roman marble portrait identified by the Museum of National History and Archaeology in Constanta, Romania, as Philip the Arab, also known as Marcus Julius Philippus. This is a PLA reproduction of the scanned portrait, not a marble antiquity.

Made to order by TheBustVault and crafted from PLA. Choose a height of 5, 9 or 12 inches and an Ivory White, Marble Stone or Charcoal Black finish. A gift for a Roman history enthusiast or a collector of classical portrait sculpture.
