Roma 1882

"Roma" is an 1882 oil painting by Polish artist Henryk Siemiradzki, known for his historical scenes. The painting depicts a scene in ancient Rome, with a woman being adorned with flowers, attended by other women. In the background, a group of men, likely Roman citizens, watch the spectacle. This painting is characteristic of Siemiradzki's style, which often depicted classical subjects with great detail and realism. The painting's composition is structured around a central figure, the woman being adorned, and the surrounding figures create a sense of movement and drama. The use of light and shadow adds to the overall atmosphere of the scene.
