Hi all I was doing some research on roman wall painting from the first century and found this image of a Roman General as Romulus.
Are there any other images of musculata or other roman armor in color from around the firt century?
Oh and here is a basic page on Roman wall painting if any one is interested. http://www.accla.org/actaaccla/ramage.html
Quote:"Romulus depicted as Roman general (replica)" http://www.vroma.org/images/mcmanus_images/index8.html
copy of a wall painting from the Via d'Abbondanza in Pompeii (first century CE)
Romulus is depicted wearing Roman armor and patrician shoes; he carries a spear and a trophy, the spolia opima that he had won in the year after Rome's foundation.
