SCULPTURES

Trajan’s Column was erected 106–113 CE by the Roman emperor Trajan 

The marble column is of the Roman Doric order, and it measures 125 feet (38
metres) high together with the pedestal, or base, which contains a chamber that
served as Trajan’s tomb.
Originally the column stood in the middle of a courtyard surrounded by
galleries from which one could view at various levels the spiral band (over 800
feet [240 metres] long and about 4 feet [1.2 metres] wide) covered with low-relief
sculpture that forms a continuous narrative of the emperor’s two campaigns
in Dacia. A spiral staircase is contained within the shaft’s interior, which
measures 12 feet 2 inches (3.7 metres) in diameter. At first a bronze eagle had
been placed on top of the column and then after Trajan’s death a bronze statue
of the deceased emperor, which was replaced in 1588 by a statue of St. Peter.
One of Augustus’ most famous portraits is the so-called Augustus of
Primaporta of 20 B.C.E. (the sculpture gets its name from the town in Italy
where it was found in 1863).  At first glance this statue might appear to simply
resemble a portrait of Augustus as an orator and general, but this sculpture also
communicates a good deal about the emperor’s power and ideology.  In fact, in
this portrait Augustus shows himself as a great military victor and a staunch
supporter of Roman religion.  The statue also foretells the 200 year period of
peace that Augustus initiated, called the Pax Romana.
The Arch of Titus is a Roman Triumphal Arch which was erected
by Domitian at the foot of the Palatine hill on the Via Sacra in the Forum
Romanum, Rome. It commemorates the victories of his father Vespasian and
brother Titus in the Jewish War in Judaea (70-71 CE) when the
great city of Jerusalem was sacked and the vast riches of its temple plundered.
The arch is also a political and religious statement expressing the divinity of the
late emperor Titus.
The Arch of Constantine I, commemorates Roman Emperor Constantine’s
victory over the Roman tyrant Maxentius on 28th October 312 CE at the battle of
Milvian Bridge in Rome. It is the largest surviving Roman triumphal arch and the
last great monument of Imperial Rome. The arch is also a tour de force of
political propaganda, presenting Constantine as a living continuation of the most
successful Roman emperors, renowned for their military victories and good
government.
