Quizplus · Accepted Answer

On the Column of Trajan, the emperor appears as a stable and efficient commander, overseeing the various battles and campaigns of the Roman army depicted on the column. He is portrayed with military attire and engaged in strategic planning and decision-making, but not as a merciless soldier or marauder. The portrayal is also not that of a prince, as Trajan was not born into the imperial family but rather came to power through military achievements and political maneuvering.
