The universe is change; life is what thinking makes of it.
– Marcus Aurelius
The bust exemplifies Marcus Aurelius' image as the perfect ruler, the
"philsopher king." His face projects maturity, serenity, and wisdom
underlined by his long beard in the tradition of Greek philosophers. But
he also wears a military tunic and cloak, which reflect his active role
as commander-in-chief. He spent many years during the latter part of
his reign on campaign in central Europe defending the Danube frontier
against several different barbarian tribes. It was during these
campaigns that he wrote part of the so-called Meditations, a personal
diary of his innermost thoughts, influenced by the teachings of the
Greek philosopher Epictetus. The bust is said to have been acquired in
Rome by the Hon. James Barry Smith and was displayed at Marbury Hall in
Chesire, England in 1776.–Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York
