He played a critical role in the gradual transformation of the Roman Republic into the Roman Empire.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn 60 BC, Julius Caesar, Crassus and Pompey formed a political alliance that was to dominate Roman politics for several years. Their attempts to amass power through populist tactics were opposed by the conservative elite, within the Roman Senate, among them, Cato the Younger, with the frequent support of Cicero.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCaesar's conquest of Gaul, completed by 51 BC, extended Rome's territory to the English Channel and the Rhine. Julius Caesar became the first Roman general to cross both when he built a bridge across the Rhine and conducted the first invasion of Britain.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThese achievements granted him unmatched military power and threatened to eclipse the standing of Pompey, who had realigned himself with the Senate after the death of Crassus, in 53 BC. With the Gallic Wars concluded, the Senate ordered Caesar to lay down his military command and return to Rome. Julius Caesar refused, and marked his defiance in 49 BC by crossing the Rubicon with a legion to march on Rome. Civil war resulted, from which he emerged as the unrivaled leader of Rome.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJulius Caesar was assassinated by a group of senators led by Marcus Junius Brutus. A new series of civil wars broke out, and the constitutional government of the Republic was never restored. Caesar's adopted heir, later known as Augustus, rose to sole power, and the era of the Roman Empire began.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePREMIUM MARBLE CAST\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOur sculptures are produced using a unique and proprietary dry casting process.

This sculpture depicts the famous Roman emperor with a naked chest, an usual image of the busts of Trajan. Trajan is remembered as a successful soldier-emperor, 98-117 AD, who presided over the greatest military expansion in Roman history, leading the empire to attain the maximum territorial extent ever by the time of his death. Born in the city of Italica (modern Sevilla) in the province of Hispania Baetica, Trajan's non-patrician family was of Italian and Iberian origins. Trajan rose to prominence during the reign of Domitian, serving as a legatus legionis in Hispania, and supporting Domitian in 89 against a revolt led by Antonius Saturninus. Domitian was succeeded in 96 by Marcus Cocceius Nerva, an old and childless senator who proved to be unpopular with the army. After a brief and tumultuous year in power, culminating in a revolt by members of the Praetorian Guard, Nerva was compelled to adopt the more popular Trajan as his heir and successor. He died in 98 and was succeeded by his adopted son without incident.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe stone socle of this bust can have veinings of different color and size which can alter the final appearance of the bust. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAged Copper Sculptures\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOur sculptures are crafted using a unique and proprietary hot-casting process.

Although he technically only acted as dictator of Rome, as of today the names of Caesar and Imperator are synonyms of emperor. Julius Caesar was born in 100 BC, the youngest child of a proconsul and Aurelia Cotta. Together with Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus and Marcus Licinius Crassus, he was part of the first Triumvirate. He was a brilliant general who inspired his men, with them he conquered Gaul and won the Civil War among the most celebrated achievements. As politician, he established important civil and social reforms during his career, named dictator in perpetuity, and finally was assassinated by a group of senators on 15th of March in 44 BC (Ides of March). \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe stone socle of this bust can have veinings of different color and size which can alter the final appearance of the bust. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAged Copper Sculptures\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOur sculptures are crafted using a unique and proprietary hot-casting process.

This is one of the reasons why marble cast sculptures are more expensive than resin—but also why they offer better long-term value.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1551\/9675\/files\/Veiled-lady-SCAN4401076-12ace421-5903-469e-8707-4ac430eb6ecb.__CR0_0_1940_600_PT0_SX970_V1.jpg?v=1683545128\" width=\"100%\"\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1551\/9675\/files\/Veiled-lady-SCAN4401076-b1ad1be7-838f-4f27-910c-de96098c4bbe.__CR0_0_1940_600_PT0_SX970_V1.jpg?v=1683545128\" width=\"100%\"\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1551\/9675\/files\/Veiled-lady-SCAN4401076-ab834706-168a-4262-8216-47e924d6894a.__CR0_0_1940_600_PT0_SX970_V1.jpg?v=1683545128\" width=\"100%\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAdditionally, our premium cast contains crystalline sparkling particles, enhancing its natural luster and making it even closer in appearance to real stone—because it nearly is.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1551\/9675\/files\/materialcloseup-sas02.jpg?v=1739965579\" width=\"100%\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn a world where shortcuts and mass production have become the norm, investing in a sculpture crafted with integrity and tradition is more than just a purchase—it’s a statement.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOur sculptures are the result of meticulous craftsmanship, bringing your interior depth, character, and soul. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith their timeless elegance and superior quality, they stand as authentic works of art, meant to be admired for generations.\u003c!-- split --\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1551\/9675\/files\/output-onlinepngtools.png?v=1720861214\" height=\"12px\"\u003e Premium white Carrara marble cast — a refined alternative to resin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1551\/9675\/files\/output-onlinepngtools.png?v=1720861214\" height=\"12px\"\u003e Hand-finished surface revealing natural marble particles\u003cbr\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1551\/9675\/files\/output-onlinepngtools.png?v=1720861214\" height=\"12px\"\u003e High marble content (approx. 90%) for a cool, stone-like feel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1551\/9675\/files\/output-onlinepngtools.png?v=1720861214\" height=\"12px\"\u003e Pure white tone with a subtle, neutral patina\u003cbr\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1551\/9675\/files\/output-onlinepngtools.png?v=1720861214\" height=\"12px\"\u003e Timeless artistic quality, designed to elevate any interior\u003c!-- split --\u003eHeight: \u003cspan style=\"display: none;\" class=\"geotargetlygeocontent1630916007191_content_2 geotargetlygeocontent1630916007191_content_4 geotargetlygeocontent1630916007191_default\"\u003e30 cm \/ \u003c\/span\u003e11.7\"\u003cbr\u003eWidth: \u003cspan style=\"display: none;\" class=\"geotargetlygeocontent1630916007191_content_2 geotargetlygeocontent1630916007191_content_4 geotargetlygeocontent1630916007191_default\"\u003e15 cm \/ \u003c\/span\u003e5.9\"\u003cbr\u003eDepth: \u003cspan style=\"display: none;\" class=\"geotargetlygeocontent1630916007191_content_2 geotargetlygeocontent1630916007191_content_4 geotargetlygeocontent1630916007191_default\"\u003e15 cm \/ \u003c\/span\u003e5.9\"\u003cbr\u003eWeight: \u003cspan style=\"display: none;\" class=\"geotargetlygeocontent1630916007191_content_2 geotargetlygeocontent1630916007191_content_4 geotargetlygeocontent1630916007191_default\"\u003e3.6 kg \/ \u003c\/span\u003e7.9lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cimg style=\"max-height: 15px;\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1551\/9675\/files\/backhand-index-pointing-right_1f449_e8c41568-2705-465a-b673-e98e78a25bde.jpg?v=1677068309\"\u003e Unlike hollow replicas, this piece is solid throughout\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c!-- split --\u003eEurope\u003c!-- split --\u003e1\u003c!-- split --\u003eSCGR4401070B\u003c!-- split --\u003eIN STOCK - Shipping within 7 days\u003c!-- split --\u003e\u003c!-- split --\u003e\u003cspan style=\"display: none;\" class=\"geotargetlygeocontent1630916007191_content_2 geotargetlygeocontent1630916007191_content_4 geotargetlygeocontent1630916007191_default\"\u003e30 cm \/ \u003c\/span\u003e11.7\"","brand":"The Ancient Home","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39672908447857,"sku":"SCGR4401070B","price":223.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1551\/9675\/products\/001-ariadne-bust-sculpture-SCGR4401070B_square_ce3bf3a9-a275-4f9a-84c1-731cd1efefea.jpg?v=1770809766"},{"product_id":"bust-of-venus-de-milo","title":"Bust of Venus de Milo","description":"Bust of Venus de Milo inspired by the ancient Greek statue of Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of love and beauty.
