Create a highly detailed and realistic image of a statue of Seneca the Younger, depicted as a wise and seasoned philosopher. The statue should capture his contemplative expression and the stoic calm of his demeanor, embodying the depth and introspection of his philosophical teachings. The background should be simple and elegant, with soft lighting that highlights the fine details of the sculpture's facial features and drapery. Include a classical pedestal engraved with Roman motifs to enhance the historical authenticity.
