Image: PGS 1984 - information from the source may be found on the original file. I did the manual job - (there: extracting the high resolution PDF scan from Google Books - since there's no automatic option), converting it into an image, cropping it, editing it with an online tool (https://picwish.com/it/remove-image-watermark) to remove library mark and lettering flourishes. I did it all for this express purpose, to have a portrait of Gnaeus Naevius to link to its Wikidata item., CC BY-SA 4.0, via Wikimedia Commons.
