Etruscan head of a youth 3rd-2nd C. BCE

"Stylistically, this type of head is ultimately derived from Hellenistic Greek prototypes and was especially popular with sculptors working at Cales, a city northeast of Naples. The head was originally part of a full figure that may have adorned a pediment."
