Roman🪔 On this day in 9 BCE, #Vespasian, the future emperor who would restore stability to the Roman Empire after the chaos of the Year of the Four Emperors, was born. A military leader and founder of the Flavian dynasty. This expressive bust of Vespasian - of a so-called Copenhagen type - is part of the Grimani collection in Venice, but it was likely crafted in the 16th century. 📸 me #RomanEmpire #OnThisDay #FlavianDynasty
