Watch List notes:

After the Antique, 15th century, Bust of Pompey, bronze plaquette, laureate, draped and bearded bust left and inscribed PONPEO (sic), 46mm x 67.5mm (Bange 176; Kress 272, fig. 55; Scaglia I 11-12; Warren, Ashmolean, 359), pierced, very fine early cast, with dark patina. The bust is not at all like that of the beardless Pompey the Great and in fact is closer to the Roman emperor Septimius Severus. The plaquette is also known without Pompey's name. Provenance: R.B.W. collection, CNG auction, 2 December 2015, lot 330.
