Hadrian: Empire and Conquest at the British Museum, London
This is a special exhibition that explores the life, love and legacy
of Rome’s most enigmatic emperor, Hadrian (reignedAD 117–138).
Hadrian ruled an empire that comprised much of Europe, northern Africa and the Middle East. He was a military leader that was much admired for being ruthless, aggressive and very successful.

The organisers of the exhibition state:
‘This exhibition provides fresh insight into the sharp contradictions of Hadrian’s character and challenges faced during his reign.
Objects from 28 museums worldwide and finds from recent excavations are shown together for the first time to reassess his legacy, which remains strikingly relevant today’.
