MonumentNote bust is split, with only the right-most piece surviving. CPF is reconstructed off of the drawings in the CIL and Maršić which seem to indicate that the whole inscriptions was once visible. However, the portrait is missing from the head of the child and up, therefore no obervation can be made about the existence of a frieze
