Roman Emperor Commodus, or Caesar Marcus Aurelius Commodus Antoninus Augustus, was emperor from 177-192. His brutal misrule precipitated civil strife that ended 84 years of stability and prosperity within the empire.

This marble bust, located at the Getty Villa in Los Angeles, was shot with an iPhone 4s.
