EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning bust portrays Commodus Antoninus Augustus, also known as Commodus, who ruled as Roman Emperor from 180 to 192 AD. Commodus is depicted in the prime of his life, with a serious and determined expression on his face, reflecting the responsibilities that came with his position. Born in 161 AD, Commodus began his reign as co-emperor with his father, Marcus Aurelius, from 177 until his father's death in 180. Marcus Aurelius was renowned for his wisdom and military prowess, and Commodus was expected to continue his father's legacy. However, Commodus' reign was marked by extravagance, decadence, and a growing disregard for the Senate and the Roman people. This beautiful marble sculpture was created during the 2nd century AD, and is now housed in the Glyptothek in Munich, Germany. The Glyptothek is a renowned museum for ancient sculpture, and this bust of Commodus is a testament to the artistic and historical significance of the Roman Empire. Commodus was part of the Nerva-Antonine Dynasty, which ruled Rome from 96 to 235 AD. This period was marked by stability, prosperity, and cultural achievements, and the Antonine Emperors are remembered as some of the greatest rulers in Roman history. Despite the controversies of his reign, Commodus remains an intriguing figure in the annals of ancient Rome. This bust offers a glimpse into the life of a complex and enigmatic emperor, whose legacy continues to fascinate scholars and history buffs alike.
