Empire of Images

Visualizing the Conquered in the Roman Republic

Empire of Images explores the development of visual tropes used to represent conquered peoples in the Roman Republic. From trophies to captives to personified provinces, these images were invested with symbolic authority through complex interaction between Rome and foreign peoples. Through a case study approach, Empire of Images centralizes conquered provinces in the development of Roman visual culture.
