Ancient Roman Art & Antiquities for Sale - Artemis Gallery
The definition 'art of the ancient Rome' is usually used to describe art created in Rome, but having no tight cultural connections with the native art of a specific region, being under the reigns of the Empire. The art came into being in the period from the 6th to 4th century B.C.(until the Roman Empire was divided into the eastern and western part). The eldest stage of development is associated with the reigns of Etruscan kings. Its heyday lasted until the Gaul's invasion of Rome in 390 B.C.

Inspired by the achievements of the ancient Greeks, Romans made their city the center of an empire unsurpassed in size and influence for more than a thousand years. Romans erected structures so well-built and engineered that they still stand millennia later, yet these same buildings also showcased blood sports as public entertainment. The Romans instituted just government, impartial legal and political institutions, and concepts of citizenship, yet its population included slaves, as well as patricians and plebeians, and was often rife by intrigue, superstition, and savagery.
