All about the product
With over 23,000 infantry and 3,500 cavalry, Rome defeated Greece at Corinth in 146 BC. But the defeat in battle became a victory for civilizations. Roman culture was greatly influenced by the Greek language, education, architecture, philosophy, and way of life. As Horace said, "Greece took her brutal conqueror captive."
This period is characterized by fierce local and international wars. Their cruelty is symbolized by the aggressiveness of the infantry and the cavalry. The posture of the king and queen shows their unquestioned leadership. The figure of the bishop reveals his concern for the upcoming battle. Finally, the castle reproduces the column - the main symbol of the architectural style of the Greco-Roman period.
