  • Herm with a portrait head of Zeno

Comparison with a herm in the Farnese Collection in Naples, complete with inscription, sanctions the inclusion of the Capitoline work on the list of replicas of the portrait of Zeno of Citium (333/331-264/261 BC), founder of the Stoic school that held lessons in the Stoa Poikile in the agora of Athens.
