Part 6 of the Roman Faces project, used several graphic design tools and animation software. This part covers most of the emperors of that era who had a statue or a bust and remodeled some previous ones that lacked definition.

Aurelian! At last! One of the best Emperors working in one of the most crucial moments for the Empire.

Man, Aurelian got shafted big time! Rome would have FLOURISHED under his command, had he not been assassinated. Loving the videos!!

Maximinus Thrax (correct name) was the first of the "Soldier Emperors": a gigantic (above 2 m tall), brute military, from barbarian family. His strong, huge face does justice to historical accounts.

Aurelian is Rome's self destruction at it's most disastrous, he was a very great Emperor in potential, in some ways SUPERIOR to Diocletian. So when he was killed, Rome lost a major asset.

@RexGalilae Жыл бұрын

The History of Rome podcast put it best, "When it comes to cumulative career value, long reigning emperors like Trajan, Hadrian, Diocletian and Augustus are the obvious choices but when it comes to peak value, boy is Aurelian peak value exemplified!" He didn't live long enough to make the same level of impact as emperors who ruled for >=20 years but what he achieved in those 5 years were out of this world

@jonathancummings6400 Жыл бұрын
