From the Cleveland Museum of Art record

Although the identity of this man remains a mystery, its realism is striking. Far from idealized, it convincingly depicts a solid middle-aged man with wrinkled forehead, high cheek bones, and deep-set eyes. Portrait heads like this could belong to busts, herms, or full-length statues.
