In this 2005 study, Jeannine Uzzi examines the ruling elite's notions of what it meant to be Roman by examining images of children in Roman imperial art. Roman children are most often shown in depictions of peaceful public gatherings before the emperor, whereas non-Roman children appear only in scenes of submission, triumph, or violent military activity.
