Trajan and Hadrian legionaries
#7
Although later than Hadrian I shall post image of a scene from the Column of Marcus Aurelius which was constructed about 80 years after Trajan's column commemorating victory of Marcus in Marcomannic Wars. The scene depicts Marcus Aurelius officiating at a religious ceremony & he is surrounded by a group of soldiers, sorry this seemed to be one of the better quality scenes as the Column of Marcus was in a worse state than Trajan's Column. Don't know much about the differences but others might pick up something.
