Während der Kaiser und hohe Senatsbeamte regelmäßig mit solchen Statuen geehrt wurden, war die Konkurrenz unter den Wohltätern der Städte um diese Ehrung groß: ging es doch um nicht weniger, als die Erinnerung an den geehrten Patron und seine Familie über Generationen hin öffentlich zu verkünden und zu verewigen. Zwar gab es viele Möglichkeiten, sich eine Porträtstatue zu verdienen; die lokalen Honoratioren mussten jedoch oft bis nach ihrem Tod warten, bevor ihre Hoffnung darauf von der Öffentlichkeit erfüllt wurde. Jane Fejfer weist zum ersten Mal nach, wie grundsätzlich unser Verständnis und unsere Wahrnehmung von römischen Porträtstatuen erweitert werden, wenn wir folgende Faktoren einer systematischen Analyse unterziehen: den historischen Kontext, die ursprüngliche Aufstellung, die Entsehungsbedingungen von Herstellung und Stil - und den Sockel, auf dem in vielen Fällen ein Text angebracht war, der die suggestive Wirkung des Bildes durch eine eigene Rhetorik ergänzte. 330 $aThe highest honour a Roman citizen could hope for was a portrait statue in the forum of his city. While the emperor and high senatorial officials were routinely awarded statues, strong competition existed among local benefactors to obtain this honour, which proclaimed and perpetuated the memory of the patron and his family for generations. There were many ways to earn a portrait statue but such local figures often had to wait until they had passed away before the public finally fulfilled their expectations. It is argued in this book that our understanding and contemplation of a Roman portrait statue is greatly enriched, when we consider its wider historical context, its original setting, the circumstances of its production and style, and its base which, in many cases, bore a text that contributed to the rhetorical power of the image. 410 0$aImage & context ;$vv. 2. 606 $aArt and society$zRome 606 $aPortrait sculpture$zItaly$zRome 606 $aPortrait sculpture, Roman$zItaly$zRome 615 0$aArt and society 615 0$aPortrait sculpture 615 0$aPortrait sculpture, Roman 676 $a733/.5 676 $a733.5 700 $aFejfer$b Jane$0472151 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910829288103321 996 $aRoman portraits in context$9231365 997 $aUNINA
