THE ARCH OF CONSTANTINE

Constantine’s ‘Recycled’ Sculpture Why? Lack of skilled artisans in Rome at the time Lack of time to complete the required reliefs Constantine’s desire to be identified with ‘good emperors’

The ‘Good Emperors’ TRAJAN This is part of a frieze from Trajan’s campaigns against the Dacians. The Trajanic works all came from Trajan’s Forum. Photo: http://sights.seindal.dk/

The ‘Good Emperors’ HADRIAN This roundel shows Hadrian on a boar hunt. The head of the Emperor has been remodeled to look like Constantine.

The ‘Good Emperors’ MARCUS AURELIUS These reliefs show scenes from Marcus Aurelius’ campigns against Germanic tribes. The man standing on the right is a Dacian prisoner from Trajan’s Forum.

Constantinian Works CONSTANTINE These reliefs are part of the ‘Constantinian Frieze’ that surrounds the arch completely. They show Constantine giving out money and giving a speech. CONSTANTINE

The Inscription Photo: http://sights.seindal.dk/ “To the emperor Caesar Flavius Constantine Maximus, Pius Felix Augustus, since through divine inspiration and great wisdom he has delivered the state from the tyrant and all his factions, by his army and noble arms, the Senate and the Roman People, dedicate this arch decorated with triumphal insignia.”
