Depictions on Trajan\'s Column - Eleatic Guest - 03-31-2008 Hello, where can I get good quality images of Trajan's column? Specifically, I am looking for a picture like this of the bridge across the Danube, but with higher resolution. I found this and this page, but the pics are either too small or too dark and any way copyright protected. I heard Napoleon III made copies of all reliefs which are now in a better shape than those of the structure itself. Is there any print or online publication of them?

Is there any print or online publication of them? Yes, they are all in a book. They were photographed by Cichorius. Trajan's Column by Frank Lepper (Author), Sheppard Frere (Author) 456 pages Publisher: Alan Sutton Publishing, Ltd.; New Ed edition (2005) Language: English ISBN-10: 0750924667 ISBN-13: 978-0750924665 Also.. Museo de Civilita Romano, whose best exhibit is a plaster cast of Trajan's Column, all laid out at eye level. I will be visiting there in April! Re: Depictions on Trajan\'s Column - Eleatic Guest - 03-31-2008 Thanks. If they made pictures from Napoleon's copies I am fairly sure, that they are now in the public domain, irrespective what the editors may claim, since photos from two-dimensional art like reliefs cannot be longer protected in many states than for 70 years after the passing of the creator, which in this case is Napoleon's copyist. Re: Depictions on Trajan\'s Column - Marcus Iulius Chattus - 04-01-2008 There is another book with pictures from the trajans-column: "Die römische Armee" from Yann Le Bohec, Franz Steiner Verlag, ISBN 3-515-06300-5.

The web site mentioned only has photographs from selected areas on the column and usually not the areas that interest me. Thanks.
