Art was important to all civilisations in the world. For rich Romans, art, including portraiture, was a way to display their importance. There were aristocrats who were art lovers, liked to demonstrate that they were knowledgeable and also commissioned works of art to embellish their towns because they saw themselves as benefactors. For the emperors art was a means for legitimising and glorifying their rule.
