    I think he bears a remarkable likeness to various busts of Julius Caesar, particularly the 25bc one (the Chiaramonti Caesar?) in the Vatican Museum.

    Pretty sure that's the "Pseudo-Corbulo" made of Parian marble from the 1st Century BC. I don't think anyone knows who that is.

    Well guys when I got this pic I looked at others of the same person and they looked the same so I believe this is genuine.
    Nobody has it right yet. I'll give an easy clue. He was a commander of the Praetorian Guard.

    Sejanus maybe? Though I still think it's Corbulo.

    No but the time period is more or less good.

    Yup it's Wrede, a Bavarian and French general. It was this fool who tried to halt Napoleon's retreat at Hanau in 1813 and he got swept away.
