Display of funerary portraits of Roman citizens. The caption reads:

“Two thousand years on and we can say that they have achieved their desire to immortalize themselves; they catch the eye of visitors to the museum, thereby ensuring that they do not fall into oblivion. Here they remain, in the city of their birth.”
