Written contributions by leading experts and forceful pictures, as well as the exhibition in the Amphithater and Domus on the Palatino Hill which are named after the Flavians, reveal the true face of the Emporers of this dynasty. The catalogue is divided into three parts: the first illustrates Vespasian's ascent to power and the surrounding events, especially the Great Jewish Revolt. This is followed by contributions on the Flavian ideology, the portraits of family members and the historical importance of art and propaganda.
