DescriptionHellenistic bust of a man, possibly Philip V of Macedon, copper alloy, circa 200 BC.jpg
English: Description of this ancient Greek copper-alloy bust provided by the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, Richmond:
Greek (Macedon, Hellenistic period). Portrait head of a man, c. 200 BC. Copper alloy. Adolph D. and Wilkins C. Williams Fund, 2000.82. This portrait head was once part of a statue measuring about thirty-six inches high. The now-missing eyes were made from another material, such as glass, and the lips may well have been inlaid with gilding or copper alloy. Separately attached bronze leaves once adorned the wreath (a fragment of one still survives). Comparison with coins suggests that this may be a portrait of a ranking Macedonian leader, perhaps even Philip V (reigned 220-179 BC).
