[Claudia the Vestal Virgin]
-
Description
-
This image appears at the beginning of the story of the vestal virgin named Claudia. The story of Claudia, however, does not reflect the events in this image. This image depicts a woman and a man standing before two sitting elderly men as they appear to be discussing something of importance. Claudia’s story involves her saving her father from a group of plebeians who try to attack him during a tribune procession. The story and image do not seem to match.
