This bronze head, found on the island of Delos in 1912, represents one of the most extraordinary masterpieces of #Hellenistic art that has survived to this day.

It dates back to the 1st or 2nd century BC. and is known among Anglo-Saxon scholars as the "Worried Man of Delos" due to the incredible expressiveness of his features.

It is currently preserved in the Archaeological Museum of #Athens.
