A guess on how the Roman Emperors looked in real life. Vespasian looks like LBJ.
And NERO looks a bit like a heavy Prince Harry.
ReplyDeleteHa!
DeleteNero was a red-head - explains a lot.
DeleteWhite guys.
ReplyDeleteShoulda had NetFlix do the work
DeleteSo? What did you expect?
DeleteNero looks like he probably originated the neck beard.
ReplyDeleteYeah, Vespasian does look like LBJ. And Vitellius looks like Gert Frobe - who played Goldfinger in the movie.
ReplyDeleteAnd I have been to see Hadrian's wall and Antonine's wall.
ReplyDeleteJust goes to show how many faces there are and get recycled... As needed.
ReplyDeleteLucius Veras looks like Tucker Carlson with a beard.
ReplyDeleteI thought Lucius looked like Richard Dreyfuss. Especially the smirk.
DeletePretty neat, there are YouTube videos of people before motion pictures and often statues like these and they animate them.
ReplyDeleteVitellius looks like Ed 'I Hate Spunk' Asner.
ReplyDeleteNot too many look Italian
