EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning statue, titled "The Mater Familias" or "Matrona," is a captivating representation of a Roman woman from the Imperial Era, currently housed at the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek in Copenhagen, Denmark. Dating back to the ancient world, this artwork offers a glimpse into the fashion and societal norms of the Roman matrons during this period. The woman is depicted wearing a simple yet elegant tunic, which was the standard garment for Roman women of the upper class. The tunic is draped over her body, revealing the intricate undergarment, known as a palla, which was worn around her shoulders and secured with a fibula, or brooch. The tunic itself is adorned with delicate folds and stitching, showcasing the skill and artistry of Roman textile production. The Matrona's hairstyle is also noteworthy, with her hair pulled back into an intricate updo, which would have been common among Roman women of the time. This hairstyle not only kept the hair out of the way while performing daily tasks but also signified one's marital status and wealth. The statue's serene expression and maternal pose further emphasize the importance of the family unit in Roman society. The Mater Familias, or "Mother of the Family," held a significant role in Roman households, managing the household finances, overseeing the education of children, and maintaining the social status of the family. This exquisite statue is a testament to the rich history and cultural significance of the Roman Empire, and a reminder of the societal norms and fashion trends that shaped the lives of Roman women during this era. The Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek in Copenhagen is just one of many museums that preserve and showcase the incredible art and artifacts of the ancient world, allowing us to appreciate and learn from the past.
