EDITORS COMMENTS
1st Century Ancient Roman Marble Bust: A Mystery of Julius Caesar or Sulla? This exquisite marble bust, currently housed in the Carlsberg Glyptotek Museum in Copenhagen, Denmark, presents a captivating enigma in the annals of Roman Republican history. While some scholars attribute the bust to the renowned military and political figure, Gaius Julius Caesar (102-44 BC), others argue persuasively for Lucius Cornelius Sulla Felix (138-78 BC), the famous dictator and reformer. The bust, estimated to date from the 1st century AD, showcases the extraordinary craftsmanship of the Roman artisans. The intricate details of the facial features, particularly the prominent nose, suggest a strong, determined individual. The broken state of the bust, with its missing chin and parts of the crown, only adds to its allure, as it invites us to imagine the historical figure it once represented. Julius Caesar, a legendary consul, general, and magistrate, is perhaps best known for his military conquests, most notably the conquest of Gaul, and his role in the events leading to the end of the Roman Republic. Sulla, on the other hand, was a pivotal figure in Roman politics during the late Roman Republic, known for his military campaigns, political reforms, and his role in establishing the Sullan Constitution. Despite extensive research, the true identity of this ancient Roman bust remains a mystery. The debate between Caesar and Sulla as the possible subjects continues to fuel the curiosity of historians and art enthusiasts alike. Regardless of who it represents, this magnificent bust serves as a testament to the rich history and artistic achievements of ancient Rome.
