There's a decades old debate among scholars of Early Christian art as to the extent early iconography of Jesus incorporated elements of imperial iconography. One thing is for sure: Jesus is almost never *dressed* like an emperor, but a philosopher.

A safe and happy Christmas to you. This is possibly the earliest extant image of Mary and the Christ child, painted on the walls of the Roman catacombs in about A.D. 150. Standing by them may be a prophet.
