Walking through the exhibit, one can truly appreciate the wealth and prosperity of this time in Ancient Rome. Marble statues, bronze and terracotta works, and perfected sculptures represent only the highest quality and stylistic value. It comes as no surprise to find out that during these years,  Rome and its surrounding provinces were at a rare social equilibrium. The “Age of Balance” allowed artisans to flourish and this exhibit highlights the coinciding social comfort and artistic excellence of the time.

Imagine a rare period of stability and prosperity, led by the powerful emperors Trajan and Marcus Aurelius. This exhibition holds sculptures and marble works that do a great job of enhancing the visitor’s understanding of the Golden Age of the Roman Empire.
