Description: Portrait bronze head, as of 2007 housed in the Prado Museum, Madrid. "The identification of the head of Madrid with Hephaistion (Moreno, 1993, pp 102-104;... 1995, pp 222-223, No. 19) was rightly rejected by Stewart (1993, pp 453-455, Vol. 4. )". So saith the Prado Museum: "Retrato en bronce de un Diádoco". That museum speculates that the bust may depict Demetrius Poliorketes.
