For a long time, Roman art was somewhat overshadowed by the art of ancient Greece. It was only in about 1900 that a search began for ancient Roman art & architecture. The foundations of Roman imagery were laid in the early days of the Empire under Emperor Augustus. The imperial court & the imperial family were role models for artistic style, taste & fashion
- trendsetters, so to speak, which imperial society was obliged to follow. It was at court that the "new" took shape, pieced together from the vocabulary of Greek originals, copies & imitations as well as new creations, but fulfilling entirely new functions & expressing new meanings. The portrait of the ruler & the so-called state reliefs, which enhanced & embroidered real events, by depicting gods for example, had a particular influence in the shaping of the imagery. Using classical stylistic means, Roman art was able to fulfill all the desires & ideas of its patrons for more than two centuries. Featured works include: Augustus of Primaporta; Gemma Augustea; Lycurgus beaker; funerary relief of the Roman couple Publius Aiedius & Publia Aiedia; Constantine I in a helmet with the christogram; the portrait of a man, the so-called Brutus; equestrian statue of Marcus Aurelius; colossal portrait of Emperor Constantine I; group statue of the Emperors Diocletian, Maximian, Galerius & Constantine I, the "tetrarch group"; personifications of Macedonia & Persia.
