Although Maxentius only ruled for 6yrs, I thought the age differences of these portraits is interesting.

Well, it was a ceremonial, false beard. According to Wikipedia, it was "a metal false beard, or postiche, which was a sign of sovereignty, was worn by queens, kings and sometimes cows."

The idea of a bearded cow certainly reminds me of my own beer goggle incidents.
