A much-restored replica of his head, now proudly displayed in the Vatican, has long been a well-known fact. The existence of the same female portrait in two distinct examples strongly suggests that an important individual is being represented. Discovered in Rome and dating back to the Trajanic period (approximately A.D. 110-120), this elderly woman's portrait offers valuable insights into ancient Roman society. This exceptional object is part of "Scan The World", a groundbreaking non-profit initiative launched by MyMiniFactory, aiming to create a comprehensive digital archive of fully 3D printable sculptures, artworks, and landmarks from around the globe for public access at no cost.
