ROME: Empire, Power, People
ROME: Empire, Power, People presents Rome not as a closed chapter of history, but as a civilisation whose legacy continues to shape the modern world. From its mythical and divine origins to its enduring cultural impacts today, this catalogue offers a multifaceted portrait of ancient Roman society as a political and administrative entity, a military power and a centre of artistic and architectural innovation.
Structured around five thematic sections - Ambition, Life, Luxury, the Divine and Eternity - this catalogue features scholarly essays, object descriptions and original narrative texts inspired by funerary inscriptions. These contributions provide historically grounded insights into the lives of people who lived thousands of years ago.
