This is not often seen. One of the less known history characters though as interesting as Caligula or Nero. Though a lot of original depictions from ancient and high middle ages exist, depictions from the "dark ages" are rare and this is why this historical period is most fascinating for me.
Thank you very much for this picture, It's really great!

He seems a cruel, brutal man. I like the leathery texture of the face.

He looks rather... diabolical shall I say? Nice piece of work Simulyaton.

Is it he the Roman emperor who defeated the Vandals in north Africa?!

No, that was Justinian I and this is the second.

Heh. Now he was a nasty piece of work. Nice contrast between the rich clothing and jewelry, and the cruelty of the face.

Thanks! I like history and such tough characters like Justinian II, but I really wouldn't like to live under his rule...
