Emperors in cuirass | Series in Statues

Emperors in cuirass

A regular sight is a statue of some emperor in a cuirass. The emperors themselves are rarely special, but I love their cuirasses.

Some of the texts from a book available at the museum gave me some extra insights into the imperial statues, that made me appreciate them even more. A lone naked emperor remained in the general statue gallery, he should have worn a cuirass.
