"Senators: Guardians of Democracy, Voices of the People" From Senate Estimate Hearings to Kennedy's Inspiring Speeches In the ancient world, their power was unquestioned. The Head of Gaius Caesar, dating back to 2 BC-4 AD, stands as a testament to the authority held by these esteemed figures. With its intricate details and regal expression, it symbolizes the weight carried by senators in shaping history. Fast forward centuries later, and we find ourselves captivated by portraits that immortalize these influential individuals. Abbondio Rezzonico's oil on canvas masterpiece from 1766 captures the essence of a senator - dignified and wise. Similarly, Brutus' marble sculpture from 1539 evokes strength and determination. However, not all they can depicted with stoic expressions alone. The Head of Herodes Atticus from around 177-180 AD portrays a hero combined with a portrait of Aelius Caesar in stunning sculpture form. It serves as a reminder that they are be both leaders and heroes who inspire others through their actions. Moving closer to our time, Senator Robert Kennedy emerges as an iconic figure who used his platform for positive change. In black-and-white photographs taken during February 1966, he engages with schoolchildren like Ricky Taggart on Gates Ave. , discussing education's importance while leaving an indelible mark on young minds. Another powerful image shows Senator Robert F. Kennedy surrounded by children outside a building just days later – evidence that they have the ability to connect with communities at grassroots levels and make tangible differences in people's lives. Yet being a senator is not always about inspiring speeches or engaging conversations; sometimes it involves trials and tribulations too. The trial of Paul Deroulede comes alive through vivid color lithography depicting how even senators must uphold justice within society. Lastly but most famously remembered is Julius Caesar's assassination in 44 BC – a pivotal moment in history captured through engravings.
