A New Portrait of Philetairos: Style, Identity and Dating of the Bust in Sadberk Hanım Museum Istanbul

Öz

This article examines a marble portrait bust of Philetairos in the collection of the Sadberk Hanım Museum in Istanbul, which has not previously been studied in detail from a sculptural perspective. The study aims to reassess both the identification and the dating of the piece through stylistic and comparative analysis. Particular attention is given to the relationship between the sculptural portrait and the numismatic representations of Philetairos, which constitute the primary basis for his iconography. While the bust shares key physiognomic features with coin portraits, it also displays a clear tendency toward idealization, reducing the more exaggerated traits visible in the numismatic evidence. Comparison with the well-known Naples herm suggests that the two works derive from different prototypes and reflect distinct representational approaches. The presence of a cloth diadem indicates a posthumous image of the dynast, presented in a royal context. Stylistic analysis places the bust in the early Roman Imperial Period, likely before the reign of Hadrianus, and suggests that it represents a Roman reinterpretation of a Hellenistic original.
