the romans, their artists, roman patrons delighted in the collection of sculpture in the round-- sculpture which they displayed in their public places sculpture which they used to decorate the fora palaces, gardens-- a variety of situations-- sculpture, which i may add they put into museums because, indeed, the delight in works of art was something that gave enormous pleasure both to the romans and also to their friends. indeed it has become clear that much of greek art has, in fact, survived not in originals but in roman copies, much like the copies in this room in the capitoline museum in rome. such a special work is this statue in marble from hadrian's villa of a tormented centaur. the statue in dark marble comes close to the bronze original of the hellenistic period, and one can see what effort the sculptor's expended in attempting to reproduce as closely as possible the ancient original. hadrian, who we must imagine collected this sculpture and enjoyed it could appreciate a certain moral content in the work itself. the centaur is tormented by lust. at one time-- now missing, unfortuna

"the romans gained control of aspis," wrote the roman historian polybius.orce, the army marched out to plunder the countryside. "they destroyed many houses, "captured a large amount of spoils, "and took more than 20,000 slaves back to the ships." beginning in 510 b.c., roman armies spiralled outwards, conquering ever vaster territories. greeks, egyptians, gauls, mauritanians... all fell under the sweep of the empire. hundreds of thousands of prisoners of war were torn from their home countries. they became the slaves of the conquerers. the numbers of slaves was astounding -- an estimated one out of every three people living in the empire. their lives were hard. they could be beaten, whipped, even killed for disobedience. yet slaves could earn their freedom. wallace-hadrill: the crucial difference between the roman and the american concept of slavery is the possibility of freedom in the roman concept. not only that, but the fact that once freed, a roman slave becomes a citizen. keach: in rome, freed slaves were often included in the family tombs of their for

it's not merely that rome gave the west the latin language, roman law, roman ideas on state craft andn society. it was rome which passed on to the west the artistic, philosophical, and spiritual legacy of ancient greece, which rome had conquered, looted, and then learned from. it was rome which would be the agency of transmission to the west of an obscure, near-eastern religious cult which became the dynamic, motive force in western society and spiritual life-- christianity. but rome also gave the west a practical legacy, a legacy which western people see every day of their lives, from washington square to trafalgar square. and that legacy lies in the realm of architecture, civil engineering, building, town planning. these were the roman arts par excellence. and roman thinkers came to view the goal of their empire as providing a peace in which those arts could flourish. it was caesar augustus who brought the first real peace to a rome weary of continual war and internal strife. in 13 b.c., the senate celebrated his triumphant return from spain by dedicating to him an altar of augustan

minerva was the roman equivalent of the greek athena. for latrobe's first house chamber, there was modeled a seated figure of liberty above the speaker's chair. its appearance reconstructed by chenowitz in two images based on latrobe's description. by her side stands the american eagle supporting her left hand in which is the cap of liberty. her right presents a scroll, the constitution of the united states, her foot treads upon a reversed crown on -- as a footstool and upon other emblels of monarchy and bondage. franzoni also carved a spread winged eagle in the entrance. its wings spread 12 feet, 6 inches in breadth. four relief panels opposite the eagle were personifications representing ag kultsure, art, science and commerce. all were ruined in the fire but some vague outlines of horizontally oriented figures are discernible on latrobe's 1815 sketch of the burnt colonnade. they suggest latrobe designed these based on the tower winds. when latrobe planned the sculpture for the second house chamber, he resurrected his 1810 athena libert
