Princeps Posted June 12, 2005 Report Share Posted June 12, 2005 Mine is this statue. Not for aesthetic reasons, but for symbolic reasons. Aesthetically I like this one of Augustus. I think it's the hood that I like the most, it conveys that austere image that Augustus was so keen to prolifigate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Primus Pilus Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 Trajan's Column. Its a non stop legacy to Rome and its legions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virgo Vestalis Maxima Posted June 16, 2005 Report Share Posted June 16, 2005 This bust of Philip the Arab is probably my favourite piece of Roman art. I love Roman veristic art. The anxious expression is captured brilliantly. I also love this statue of Augustus The exquisite detail and elaborate drapery is simply breathtaking.

Black_Francis Posted July 5, 2005 Report Share Posted July 5, 2005 Mine would have to be the colossal statue of Constantine in the Palazzo dei Conservatori, Rome: His expression seems different in every image I see of him! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hannibal_barca Posted July 5, 2005 Report Share Posted July 5, 2005 I am a fan of practically all the Roman reliefs, I don't really have a favorite era Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onasander Posted July 24, 2005 Report Share Posted July 24, 2005 Hagia Sophia for architecture, but when it comes to mosaics, it's Emperor Justinian standing between his clergy military advisors. I really don't have a favorite painting or statue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
