This head was found in Athens. The portrait has been identified as Menander (321/41-291/90), the best-known representative of New Comedy. The great dramatic poet was honoured with a statue carved at the end of the 4th century B.C. by Kephisodotos and Timarchos, the sons of Praxiteles, which was erected in the Theatre of Dionysos and depicted him seated. The head belonged to a statue that was a Roman copy of the above mentioned statue.
