So I’m killing time waiting to go to the dentist by meandering through assorted auctions at Bonham’s in search of some items from Anthony Quinn’s collection … along the way, I find this item from the antiquities auction a week ago:
… which strikes me as bearing an uncanny resemblance to this guy, no?
Here’s the official page for the Bonham’s piece: A Roman marble portrait bust Circa 1st Century B.C. – 2nd Century A.D.


That’s rather unnerving. I notice that the auction catalogue doesn’t state “striking resemblance to scary Russian President”.
