Art In The Lives Of Ordinary Romans: Visual Representation And Non-Elite Viewers In Italy, 100 B.C.-A.D. 315

Brings to life the ancient Romans whom modern scholarship has largely ignored: slaves, ex-slaves, foreigners, and the freeborn working poor. Written for a wide audience, this book illuminates the dynamics of a discerning and sophisticated population, overturning much accepted wisdom about them, and opening our eyes to their cultural diversity.
