Marcus Aurelius, recognizable by his curly hair and protruding eyes, is shown here wearing a cuirass. Beneath the mass of hair, rendered in less detail than in most portraits of this type, the lowered face with its distant gaze has a grave and meditative air. The cuirass, partly hidden by a cloak fastened over the right shoulder, is decorated with a gorgoneion or Gorgon mask in the centre and a grotesque eel-legged figure on the right shoulder-piece.
