"Trionfi romani (Roman Victories)"

The bas-reliefs, bronzes, coins, sculptures and paintings on display aim to get the concept of 'Roman vistories' across to the public by telling us about the ceremonies and festivities surrounding the historic big battles.

The first section of the exhibition relates to victories and their development, from the Etruscan to the Hellenistic worlds; the second section shows images of illustrious victors and the illustrious defeated - among which Caesar, Pompeius and Octavian - and reproduces battle scenes.

The last section is devoted to conquered peoples: the Greeks, the Judeans, the Dacians and the Barbarians.
