Possible Alexander
On a recent visit to Hever Castle in Kent, England - famous as the home of Anne Boleyn - I found this in the Italian Gardens. Could it be a bust of Alexander? It was made of marble, the hair is too long to be a Roman (though it might be a Roman bust), and there was a hint of an anastole hairstyle. A crude Alexander? It wouldn't have been anything to do with the Boleyns but would have been acquired by the Astors in the early part of the 20th century.
