One or two heads and arms seem almost to project from the canvas. There is great lifelikeness and reality, as well as higher qualities.
But from the third and second centuries we have a great number of portraits which are in the highest degree characteristic and individual, a wonderful gallery of philosophers and poets and statesmen which for lifelikeness cannot be surpassed. All the finest of the portraits of Romans were by Greek artists. It is a portrait indeed.
