Relief depicting imperial clemency. Riding a horse , Marcus Aurelius is dressed in military grab with a breastplate and paludamentum. He holds up his right hand, on the verge of bestowing his clemency on two barbarians kneeling in front of him in a gesture of submission. The pose of the emperor is very similar to the pose of the large bronze statue located in the piazza.

Copy of the Equestrian sculpture of Marcus Aurelius -- the original bronze from the Roman era is inside the Capitoline Museums.
The Capitoline Museums complex (Musei Capitolini) in Rome has one of the finest collections of sculptures, statues, and archaeological finds from antiquity in the world, in addition to paintings and art from the Middle Ages to the Baroque. Top highlights are very rare large Roman bronze sculptures such as the original equestrian statue of Marcus Aurelius, Boy with a Thorn, and the Capitoline She-Wolf (and the much more recent Romulus and Remus). The paintings collection includes works by Caravaggio, Titian, Rubens, Van Dyck, and many other European masters. Although the museum is rarely overcrowded, buying tickets online saves time.
