In my humble opinion, one of the greatest depictions of Ancient Rome was the television series"ROME", the historical drama that ran for two seasons from 2005-2007 and was set in the first century BC.
Although it featured real characters from that period of history including Julius Caesar, Mark Anthony and Cleopatra to name but a few its main protagonists were two humble soldiers... Centurion Lucius Vorenus and Legionary Titus Pullo.
Being a fan of the series l've long-wanted to depict these two characters to include in our own 'Streets of Ancient Rome' collection and here is the first one, Lucius Vorenus.
In the series, this character is a veteran centurion of the 13^th Legion and struggles to balance his personal beliefs, his duty to his superiors and the needs of his family and friends.
In addition, he was portrayed by a great Scottish actor, Kevin Mckidd but that's another story. This figure will look equally good surrounded by all of our Roman citizens on the streets of Ancient Rome or... on military duty with our large K&C collection of Roman soldiers.
