One of the most important monuments of Imperial Rome and at the same time one of the most poorly understood, the Column of Marcus Aurelius has long stood in the shadow of the Column of Trajan. In this volume, Martin Beckmann makes a thorough study of the form, content, and meaning of this infrequently studied monument.
