Chiaramonti Caesar
The Chiaramonti Caesar is one of the two accepted portraits of Julius Caesar from before the age of the Roman Empire, alongside the Tusculum portrait.[1][2] The bust has influenced the iconography of Caesar and given the name to the Chiaramonti-Pisa type, one of the two main types of facial portraits that can be seen of Caesar in modern days.

The Chiaramonti Caesar
Description
gollark: Modular phones are also really hard.
gollark: ... nobody is enforcing that, some things are just hard and/or undesired.
gollark: I suppose it's reasonable to just blame other people's different preferences and the high capital cost of phone manufacturing rather than just "the market" but meh.
gollark: I want a phone which doesn't look terrible, but I also don't care that much about aesthetics and want something cheap, durable, and functional, and apparently the market doesn't want to provide that.
gollark: Great, *more* expensive pointless designs.
