EDITORS COMMENTS
In this ancient Roman portrait, we behold the stern and enigmatic visage of Lucius Cornelius Sulla, a man of unquestionable military and political prowess. Dating back to approximately 1st century BC, this bust of Sulla, now housed in the esteemed Glyptothek in Munich, Germany, offers a glimpse into the character of one of the most influential figures of the late Roman Republic. Born in 138 BC, Sulla rose to prominence as a military commander, earning the rarest and most prestigious Roman military honor, the grass crown, during the Social War. He held the office of consul twice and, in a controversial move, seized the dictatorship in 82 BC, ruling Rome with absolute power until 79 BC. Sulla is often remembered as an optimate, or conservative, figure, who sought to preserve the traditional Roman social order and restore the Republic after a period of political turmoil. Despite the passage of time, the broken nose on Sulla's bust only adds to its allure, reminding us of the human element of this complex historical figure. The intricately carved details of his facial features, the furrows on his brow, and the determined set of his jaw, all serve to evoke the indomitable spirit of a man who left an indelible mark on the history of ancient Rome. This ancient work of art, a testament to the masterful craftsmanship of its creator, invites us to contemplate the life and legacy of Lucius Cornelius Sulla, a man whose influence continues to resonate through the ages.
