Résumé
No other monumental art form was so widely disseminated throughout the Roman Empire as the portrait statue, and its impact on city life was crucial. By combining a wide sociohistorical perspective with a close reading of individual images, their setting, and their inscribed texts, this book suggests how to approach the meaning of portraits, even the ones which have been irrevocably isolated from their original context and now adorn museum galleries.

L'éditeur en parle
Image & Context is the first international series which focuses on the image and the imagery in the ancient world. The most distinctive quality of the image is its suggestive potential which is unique. An image can both catch the viewer's attention in a fraction of a second and stamp itself forever on his mind. At the core of the series is how and by whom images were shaped and perceived, and how images functioned within and contributed to a specific cultural context.
The series aims to stimulate new discussion about the visual cultures of the ancient world and new approaches towards a history of the image.
