Digital restoration of a marble head of Julius Caesar from Noviomagus (Nijmegen)

A marble head, today at the National Museum of Antiquities (Rijksmuseum van Oudheden) in Leiden, was probably found in the fort of Hunerberg in Noviomagus, the Roman Nijmegen. This marble head, which is considered as a portraiture of Julius Caesar, is heavily damaged. Here we propose a digital restoration of the face of this head. For the restoration we use the face of the Tusculum bust, today in Turin, which is considered the oldest existing portraiture of Caesar
