DESCRIPTION:\nThe emperor Trajan was widely known in antiquity for his investments into the infrastructure of the Roman Empire\, including building or rebuilding long stretches of its network of roads\, and restructuring the urban fabric of Rome itself. To this day\, the archaeological sites of the Forum\, Markets\, and Column of Trajan remain some of the most distinctive physical attestations of the grandeur of ancient Rome\; numerous other building activities are recorded in written sources.\n\n\n\nThis lecture\, by Nathaniel B. Jones\, associate professor of art history and archaeology at Washington University in St. Louis\, will explore Trajan’s impact on Roman urbanism\, with a particular focus on representations of building projects and other important urban markers on objects in the exhibition Ancient Splendor: Roman Art in the Time of Trajan.\n\n\n\nThis event is free and open to all. Tickets for this program may be reserved in person at the Museum’s welcome desks or through MetroTix. All tickets reserved through MetroTix incur a service charge\; the service charge is waived for tickets reserved at the Museum.\n\n\n\n\nLearn more and register here.\n\n
