Faustina the Younger: A Regal Portrait from Ancient Rome This stunning bust, dating back to 175 AD, captures the enchanting beauty and regal presence of Faustina the Younger, the beloved daughter of the Roman Emperor Antoninus Pius. Discovered in the Villa Altieri, this masterpiece is now proudly displayed at the Palazzo Massimo in Rome's Roman National Museum. Born in the second century AD, Faustina the Younger, also known as Annia Galena, was a significant figure in the Roman Empire. Her father, Antoninus Pius, was a renowned and effective ruler, and Faustina's marriage to Marcus Aurelius, another future emperor, further solidified her place in history. The intricately carved stone bust showcases Faustina's youthful features, with her flowing, curly hair cascading down her shoulders and her serene expression conveying a sense of poise and grace. The meticulous detailing of her elaborate hairstyle, adorned with pearls and other precious stones, highlights the advanced artistic techniques of the Roman sculptors of the time. The bust's discovery in the Villa Altieri, an ancient Roman villa located in the outskirts of Rome, offers a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of the Roman elite. The villa, which was once owned by a wealthy Roman family, is now an essential archaeological site, providing valuable insights into the daily life and artistic achievements of the ancient Romans. As a testament to the enduring legacy of Roman art and history, this magnificent bust of Faustina the Younger continues to captivate visitors to the Palazzo Massimo, inviting us to explore the rich cultural heritage of ancient Rome.
