<p>[QUOTE="iameatingjam, post: 8025429, member: 118287"]Very interesting topic indeed. I've been wondering how and why the transition happened between realistic depictions of emperors up until the mid third century and the -all emperors look the same- of the late third century and beyond. Why? Did it just become a low priority amongst all the chaos? Was it to try and relay a message of stability? Did it happen gradually or was there some defining event? Anyone know where I can read about this?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
