[QUOTE="Batman_2000, post: 295270, member: 481"]Thanks... you're right! Although Socrates' nose usually looked smaller, but he definitely has the same style. Hippocrates too, there's also a similarity there. So I did a search for Victorian marble portraits and found this one: [ATTACH=full]96023[/ATTACH] ([URL]https://www.the-saleroom.com/en-gb/auction-catalogues/christies-south-kensington/catalogue-id-srchristi10274/lot-a7913909-492d-4fc5-ade7-a51500dbc002[/URL]) Not exactly the same, but similar enough to make me think there's another one out there that is a match for the CDV. Or perhaps it was a kind of Victorian 'joke' where someone disagreed with an ancient 'thinker' and consigned him to 'in memoriam'![/QUOTE]
