Emperor Titus, the head of Titus during 70-80 AD, was a prominent figure in ancient Rome. His bust, crafted from marble in the late 1st century AD, showcases his regal and commanding presence. As a Roman emperor, Titus rode triumphantly in a quadriga or four-horse chariot adorned with a crown by the personification of Victory on the Arch for Titus. The Arch for Titus stands as an architectural marvel celebrating his victory over Jerusalem. It depicts Roman soldiers marching proudly in procession with spoils of war or spolia. The plan and elevation of the Baths of Titus in Rome further highlight his grandeur and influence. Even coins bore witness to Emperor Titus's reign, with denarius portraying his likeness between 72-73 AD. This unknown creator captured his image on this small piece of currency that circulated throughout the empire. Artistic representations also depict significant events during Emperor Titus's rule. "The Vengeance of Notre-Seigneur" tapestry portrays the siege of Jerusalem while historical views offer glimpses into Holy Land history. One such event etched into history is the destruction of Jerusalem by Emperor Titus himself. A Chocolat Poulain trade card vividly illustrates this catastrophic event through color lithography. "The Triumph of Titus: The Flavians, " an oil painting from 1885, immortalizes him as victorious leader surrounded by adoring subjects and loyal soldiers under his command. From Cassells Illustrated Universal History published in 1883 comes another depiction - Roman soldiers firing at the Temple during The Siege of Jerusalem in AD70. This illustration captures both their destructive power and Emperor TItuss' authority over them.
