Hi Philus/Brian, even with your added clues, like Peroni/Adrian, I can't find any such image from the Column - and I have several photo-sets, and have in the past made detailed sketches of the un-deteriorated plaster copies.
Is it possible your memory is mistaken? Or perhaps you have interpreted the typical Senior Officer's sash with knot of Hercules worn horizontally over Lorica 'Musculata' as your 'horizontal lines?
Can you give us a reference number for ther scene or description of the scene you had in mind e.g. 'Adlocutio scene, Trajan facing right addressing legionaries and auxiliaries, wearing cloak, senior officer behind, T. gesturing with right hand' or similar to help locate the scene you have in mind?
