"Roman Senate " Topic

"The Senate of Rome was a remarkably robust institution that endured from the first kings of Rome until the early 7th century CE. It underwent major changes during those centuries, and was often little more than a talking shop while the real power lay elsewhere, but it was always something of a symbol of the ruling elite of Rome and is repeatedly represented in films and TV, although often inaccurately, as on the box illustration for this set.

Perhaps the most obvious and curious feature of this set is that everyone is standing up. Sessions of the Senate lasted all day, and naturally the senators themselves were often elderly (the very name implies this), so most of the time they would be seated on benches down each side of the chamber. Why then is no one here sitting down? Certainly this makes it impossible to use these figures to construct a scene depicting the Senate in action, which you would think would be the most likely use for the set, so to our eye this is a very odd choice of poses (although we do note that a second set is forthcoming and may address this). Some of the men in the first two rows look like they may be speaking, in which case standing would be a reasonable pose, and of course senators were not just to be found listening to the oratory of their peers, but the lack of seated men remains a big surprise…"

I think the figures in this set are meant to reenact the scene of Julius Caesar's murder. No need for seated figures.

and still no sitting poses in set two either

Looks very similar to the modern senate in session' ha ahah ha!.
Cheers like that statue guy, these little 1/72? sculpts are very well done.

Glad you like them my friend.
