EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print captures the powerful presence of Emperor Commodus, one of ancient Rome's most infamous rulers. Known for his extravagant lifestyle and erratic behavior, Commodus was the son of Marcus Aurelius and ascended to the throne in 180 AD. His reign was marked by corruption, cruelty, and a disregard for traditional Roman values.
In this portrait, Emperor Commodus is depicted with a stern expression, showcasing his authority and dominance. The intricate details of his attire reflect the opulence of the Roman Empire during his rule. With his distinctive features and regal demeanor, he exudes an aura of grandeur that befits a ruler of such stature.
Despite being portrayed as a strong leader in official propaganda, Commodus' reign was marred by scandal and controversy. He famously fancied himself as Hercules reincarnated and often participated in gladiatorial combat to showcase his strength. His despotic tendencies ultimately led to widespread unrest among the Roman people.
This print from Mary Evans Picture Library offers a glimpse into the tumultuous era of Emperor Commodus' rule. It serves as a reminder of the complexities inherent in historical figures and their legacies, shedding light on both their achievements and shortcomings. As we study this image, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the enigmatic figure that was Lucius Aelius Aurelius Commodus - Roman Emperor extraordinaire.
