Court in ancient Rome

A judge sits on a marble dais, to whom two Roman patrons explain the case of their clients. Both sides are awaiting the resolution of the case, supporting the arguments of their advocates with characteristic gestures. In the depths of a curious crowd of plebeians with interest following the course of the court. A perfectly grasped moment and group, picturesquely placed figures, an excellent characteristic of the ancient world in typical faces and costumes of those present; as well as in architecture and the whole environment - these are the rare advantages of this painting.
