Roman Citizen # 3 (illustrated by Max Rugers)

In August, from Fables And Reflections, Emperor Augustus and Lycius sit in the market place, disguised as beggars, and talk as people pass buy and go about their daily business.

This Roman Citizen is one of the many citizens who visit the marketplace on this particular day. He can be seen admiring the small statues at one of the booths.

He appears in Sandman # 30, on page 7, panel 1.

I really like how Max approached this character. It’s a pretty straight forward portrait, but I like the colors that he chose and the detailed line work on the character really gives the portrait a very “Romanesque” feel to me.
