Description
Statue of Emperor Claudius as Jupiter at Vatican. Claudius was the fourth Roman emperor. He`s pictured here as a god, strong and powerful. This is how Claudius wished to be depicted and remembered, rather than how he really looked. The reality is that he was despised as a child on account of his disabilities. He limped, dribbled and his nose ran when he was excited. Historians have suggested he either suffered from Polio or Cerebral Palsey. In other words, the image is rather different to the reality.
