Description:
|
Claudius was emperor from 41 to 54 CE. A member of the Julio-Claudian dynasty, he was the son of Drusus and Antonia Minor. The corona civica, or civic crown, was a garland of oak leaves (corona quercea) granted by the Senate to someone whom they considered had saved the lives of fellow Roman citizens in battle; later it was awarded to emperors whose actions as rulers saved lives in times of war. This statue was found in Lanuvium (modern Lanuvio) in 1865, dating from 37-54 CE. It originally decorated the theater there. The eagle at his feet shows Claudius as Jupiter.
