EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Roman Emperor Trebonianus Gallus: A Regal Portrait from the 17th Century" This portrait depicts Roman Emperor Trebonianus Gallus, also known as Gaius Vibius Afinius Trebonianus Gallus Augustus, who ruled from 206 to 253 AD. The image is a copperplate engraving taken from "De Roomsche Monarchy," a comprehensive work on the Roman Monarchy published in Utrecht during the 17th century by Francois Salma. Emperor Trebonianus Gallus is shown wearing the imperial regalia, including the diadem, a pearl-embroidered toga, and a pallium draped over his shoulders. His expression is calm and resolute, reflecting the wisdom and strength required to rule during a tumultuous era in Roman history. Interestingly, Trebonianus Gallus was not the only emperor during his reign. His son, Volusian, co-ruled with him from 251 to 253 AD, making them the first father-son imperial team in Roman history. The inscription at the bottom of the portrait reads "IMP. CAES. GAI. VIBI. Afini. TREB. Gallus. AVG. P. F. Volusianus AVG." which translates to "Imperator Caesar Gaius Vibius Afinius Trebonianus Gallus Augustus, Pius Father, Volusianus Augustus." This stunning portrait, created during the 17th century, offers a glimpse into the rich history of the Roman Empire and the complexities of its imperial dynasties. The intricate details of the engraving, from the fine lines of Trebonianus Gallus' facial features to the intricate patterns of his imperial robes, serve as a testament to the artistic skill and historical knowledge of the time.
