Horse Back Legionary Toga Togas
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time and immerse yourself in the grandeur and elegance of Imperial Rome as depicted in this print from Mary Evans Prints Online. The image showcases an assemblage of men and women dressed in the traditional clothing of ancient Rome, with the majority donning the iconic toga. Togas, a fundamental aspect of Roman attire, were typically made of wool and wrapped around the body, secured by a belt or fibula. Men's togas varied in style, with the most common being the tunica, a simple tunic worn underneath, and the toga virilis, a longer toga worn over the age of 14 for formal occasions. The legionary soldier, depicted on horseback, is clad in a military toga, complete with armor and a helmet. Women's togas were often more elaborate, featuring a stola, a long, draped garment, and a palla, a large shawl used to cover the head and shoulders. The print also features a woman in a more casual, informal toga, with her hair unbound and a simple diadem adorning her head. This evocative image offers a glimpse into the rich history and cultural traditions of Imperial Rome, providing a window into a world of horseback warriors, elegant women, and the grandeur of ancient Rome. The intricately detailed costumes serve as a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of the time, making this print a must-have for history enthusiasts, art collectors, and anyone with a fascination for the ancient world.
