Marble bust of the so-called Pseudo-Seneca. Roman copy from the 1st century AD after a Greek original from the end of the 2nd century BC from the Farnese Collection on display in the National Archaeological Museum in Naples, Campania, Italy. The bust was hoped to be a portrait of Roman Stoic philosopher Seneca the Younger, until the inscribed Roman portrait was identified, now generally identified as an imaginative portrait of either Hesiod or Aristophanes.
