Since its discovery in 1727, this figure's identity has been debated. Prevailing scholarly opinion calls it a mime, 1st century B.C./A.D. A recent suggestion is that he is a caricature of an Alexandrian pedant, datable to 2nd Cenury BCE.

Bronze grotesque
Greek
Since its discovery in 1727, this figure's identity has been debated. Prevailing scholarly opinion calls it a mime, 1st century B.C./A.D. A recent suggestion is that he is a caricature of an Alexandrian pedant, datable to 2nd Cenury BCE.
