Overview

Excerpt from A Group of Roman Imperial Portraits at Corinth: A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of Princeton University in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy During the course of the excavations conducted at Old Corinth by the American School of Classical Studies at Athens in 1914 1915 there came to light the remarkable series of Roman portrait sculptures which are to be considered in this and subsequent articles. These comprise no less than eight major pieces, of which four have their features sufficiently well preserved to admit of a probable identification, while two others may be determined through fairly plausible conjecture. In addition to the eight just mentioned there was found a large number of fragments of works of a similar sort, most of which are too small to permit of restoration yet which are of some interest in themselves and in that they serve also to throw light on the more important works.
