 Tragic Costumes
This document was originally published in The Drama: Its History, Literature and Influence on Civilization, vol.
In the salon of the Muses, in the Pio-Clementine Museum at Rome, are mosaics unearthed at Lorium showing twenty-two pairs of figures performing in tragedy, while in a grotto of the necropolis at Cyrene was found a group of three actors surrounded by a chorus.
Hence, and from other works of art, we can describe the costume of a Greek actor as accurately as if he were before us on the stage, though between the outward appearance of the ancient and modern player there is little in common.

 Antoninus Pius - by Julius Capitolinus
He was reared at Lorium on the Aurelian Way, where he afterwards built the palace whose ruins stand there today.
He passed his childhood first with his paternal grandfather, then later with his maternal; and he showed such a dutiful affection toward all his family, that he was enriched by legacies from even his cousins, his stepfather, and many still more distant kin.
On the second day, as he saw that his condition was becoming worse, in the presence of his prefects he committed the state and his daughter to Marcus Antoninus, and gave orders that the golden statue of Fortune, which was wont to stand in the bed-chamber of the emperor, be given to him.
