    Honestly looks just like Derek Jacobi as Senator Gracchus in Gladiator.

    Imagine having the money to make a bronze bust of yourself NOW, and then imagine how much more it would have taken back in the day

      Honestly though, kinda a cool way to take a selfie. It won’t fade or get water damaged like a photo. And in a dozen centuries, it becomes an interesting piece of history from some random person.

Just a community for everyone to share artifacts, reconstructions, or replicas for the historically-inclined to admire!

Generally, an artifact should be 100+ years old, but this is a flexible requirement if you find something rare and suitably linked to an era of history, not a strict rule. Anything over 100 is fair game regardless of rarity.
