  • The Visual Representation of Livia on the Coins of the Roman Empire

Dedication To Sean, Clair and Wendy and In Memoriam Margaret Rose Neufeld, beloved grandmother and friend. ABSTRACT Livia (58 BC-AD 29), wife of the first emperor Augustus and mother of his successor Tiberius, became the first Roman woman whose image held a substantial place on coins of the Roman Empire. While predecessors such as Fulvia and Octavia, wives of Marc Antony, were the first Roman women to appear on coins, not enough examples of such coins survive to give a clear picture of how these women were represented as part of a concerted visual program. While the appearance of Roman women on coins was not entirely revolutionary, having roughly coincided with the introduction of images of powerful Roman statesmen to coins in the late 40s BC, the degree to which Livia came to be commemorated on coins in the provinces and in Rome was unprecedented.

Though relatively diminutive in size, they embody to an exceptional degree that fusion of art and thought which is one of the chief glories of the Renais- sance. Indeed, in their beauty and their learning, these medals are a reflection in microcosm of the civilization which produced them. They represent a world which celebrated not only princes and prelates but poets and scholars as well, and they have been preserved down through the years by those who have cherished them as enduring expressions of the Humanistic tradition. ^ The present collection, one of the finest of its kind in private hands, belongs to Mr. and Mrs. Mark Salton of New York. The Salton Collection is particularly distinguished for the extremely high level of quality of the specimens in it; many of them, indeed, have come from the illustrious collections of the past. No fewer than seventeen examples are unique. While the origins of the Salton Collection date from before World War II, most of the pieces it now contains were col- lected since that time. Mrs. Salton has taken as great an interest as her husband in the formation of the collection, and her enthusiasm for, and knowledge of, medals is evident in her Introduc- tion to the Catalogue.

Sound transportation, energy and school systems are essential to achieving this Master Plan’s overarching goal of reducing property taxes. While these systems have long served the County in their current form, in order for Nassau to remain competitive in the 21st century they must evolve to address pressing economic, environmental and educational needs. Addressing traffic congestion and providing alternatives to auto dependency, reducing dependence on non-renewable energy sources, is essential to reducing costs to county residents and making Nassau a sustainable suburban County for this and future generations. A. EXISTING CONDITIONS 1. TRANSPORTATION Today Nassau County’s roadway system consists of over 4,000 miles of paved roads including parkways, highways, major arteries, and collector and local streets which are operated and maintained by different levels of government (see Figure 4-1).
