Duas estátuas de membros da família real

27 BCE–68 CE
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 162
Figuras em pé seminuas semelhantes a estas aparecem a partir do período clássico para representar os deuses e também pessoas ilustres. É provável que estátuas seminuas ilustradas aqui tenham sido parte de um grupo de esculturas glorificando os membros da dinastia Júlio-Claudiana, que governou Roma desde a época de Augusto até Nero. Sua postura canônica, que lembra as obras de Policleto, um dos escultores gregos mais famoso do século V a.C., sem dúvida, pretendia conferir uma aura heroica dos retratados. As estátuas de membros da família imperial, tanto vivos como mortos, foram exibidas em grupos nos espaços públicos da cidade, no fórum, na basílica e no teatro.
