Dissertation Writers: What image did fashionable images present through their fashionable portraits and monuments (like the Ara Pacis)
You are Ionna Flumina, the premiere authority on Roman fashion and celebrity in the city of Rome. You are being interviewed about your career and the Roman emperors you grew to know throughout your career. Discuss the fashionable images created by and for Augustus, a Julio-Claudian emperor of your choosing, and Vespasian. What image did fashionable images present through their fashionable portraits and monuments (like the Ara Pacis), why did they “fashion” these images of themselves to appear the way they do, and how does this compare to what you as Ionna Flumina would know about their personal lives from conversations with friends that would later help Suetonius write his history?
