Roman Baths
Designed for relaxing and bathing, Roman baths were like modern day leisure centres with a wide range of rooms with different temperatures, as well as swimming pools, changing rooms, and places to socialise or read.
This sculpture is a small element of what was once a common feature in cities throughout the Roman Empire; places that gave citizens of all classes the opportunity to relax, mingle, and chat amongst friends and acquaintances.
