#EpigraphyTuesday offers us one of the most famous inscriptions in #Rome, the dedication of #TrajansColumn in the #Forum of #Trajan. It commemorates the emperor, and the colossal work of digging away the hill on this site to build the Forum complex.
Trajan’s Column in Rome, built in 113 AD, features detailed carvings of the Dacian Wars, showing battles, soldiers, and daily life. A key piece of Roman history. #History #Rome #TrajansColumn
Spotted in Sir John Soane's Museum: some casts from figures on the helical frieze of #TrajansColumn.
The column was an architectural invention that allowed for the support of ceilings without the use of solid walls. #History #Vitruvius #TrajansColumn #Selinus https://t.co/SLA4gnNyXt

Looking at the details of the panels provides so much detail regarding the roman army on campaign at the height of its power #Trajanscolumn
The cast is built around a brick chimney in the museum but the original was a set of solid drums of marble with the interior staircase intricately carved out by the Roman masons #TrajansColumn

TRAJANS COLUMN
MARCUS ULPIUS TRAIANUS (A.D. 53-)
What makes #TrajansColumn a spectacular entry in the history of cinematography is the magnificent story-telling imagination of the Romans. The column appears as if a strip of celluloid has been wrapped around the column.
Can't go to the @vamuseum without visiting their amazing Cast Court galleries! They contain casts made from some of Europe's most important art works including Michelangelo's David and Trajan's Column. #museum #art #london #trajanscolumn #michelangelosdavid #culture
What have the Romans ever done for us? Empathising with the hairy Dacians here. #TrajansColumn (there’s one here as well) #Bucharest
ROMA-Remarkable detail from Trajan's Column, which displays the triumphant scenes from the Dacian Wars.

A.D. 193 COLUMN OF MARCUS AURELIUS
CINEMATIC STORY-TELLING IN A SPIRAL FRIEZE
Modelled after #TrajansColumn, this spiral frieze also commemorates great Roman battles in cinematic form from bottom to top. Like a strip of stone #celluloid wrapped around the column.
Interestingly, and in keeping with our search for the origins of cinema, we found depicted within the bas-relief imagery of the column, two separate ‘Amphitheatres’. Or, is the one on the right the entrance to a cinema? #TrajansColumn
Trajans Column can be found in Trajan's Forum which is part of the Imperial Forums located at Via dei Fori Imperiali, right next to the Piazza Venezia in #Rome. A second Roman spiral frieze was completed in A.D. 193. SEE MARCUS AURELIUS @ https://t.co/1vUL7t2oqV
In A.D. 113 the #Roman Senate as initiated by Emperor Trajan, commissioned the construction of an honorary column to be named after Trajan himself, and his victories in the wars over #Dacia (modern day Romania) from 101 until 106. #TrajansColumn
