There have been various attempts to reconstruct the face of Scotland's most famous King (Robert the Bruce, 1274-1329). This bust was made in 1966 by Charles d'Orville Pilkington Jackson (1887-1973) and shows Bruce in later life. This reconstruction is based on the cast of Bruce's skull, which is also on display (and on Scan the World)
