EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the infamous Portrait of Nero, a marble sculpture dating back to the 1st century AD. Standing at a height of 39 cm, this masterpiece is housed in the State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia. The subject of this portrait is none other than Nero Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus, who reigned as the fifth Roman emperor from AD 54 to 68. Known for his cruelty and despotic rule, Nero was both feared and revered during his time in power. With meticulous attention to detail, this bust captures Nero's commanding presence and regal demeanor. The artist skillfully portrays his malevolent gaze and authoritative expression, leaving no doubt about his status as an emperor. Despite its historical significance and artistic brilliance, it is important to note that this image is out of copyright. This means that it can be appreciated freely without any commercial use involved. Through Bridgeman Images' lens, we are transported back in time to witness the enigmatic persona of one of history's most controversial figures. This photograph serves as a reminder not only of Nero's reign but also of the enduring power and influence that art holds over centuries.
