Summary edit
| Description |
English: Bronze statue of the Roman emperor Tiberius with head veiled (capite velato) preparing to perform a religious rite found in the theater in Herculaneum 37 CE MANN INV 5615
Although not visible in this image, Tiberius, as pontifex maximus (chief priest) wears a ring on his left hand decorated with a lituus, the carved staff used by augurs to interpret the will of the gods. He also wears the distinctive calceus mulleus, boots reserved for only the highest magistrates. The statue was on loan from the National Archaeological Museum of Naples to the Getty Villa in Pacific Palisades, California and photographed there. |
