The foot of a 15-foot statue of Marcus Aurelius was found in Sagalassos in Turkey.
At Sagalassos, the Roman baths housed the frigidarium, a vast chamber known for its low temperature, and also the largest one. Within this space, archaeologists have discovered two statues in addition to a 15-foot statue. Recent findings suggest that the frigidarium once held an entire collection of grand imperial statues adorning its lengthy walls, providing a valuable assemblage of ancient depictions.

Emperor Maximilian I of the Holy Roman Empire was a prominent figure in the 16th century, known for his military campaigns and patronage of the arts. One of his most iconic possessions was his steel gauntlets, which were ornately decorated with gold and silver.
The gauntlets were made in the 16th century by Lorenz Helmschmied, a renowned German armor maker who was known for his exquisite craftsmanship. The gauntlets were designed to be both functional and decorative, with intricate designs and engravings that reflected the emperor's status and wealth.
The gauntlets were worn by Maximilian during his military campaigns, and they became a symbol of his power and authority. They were also used in ceremonial occasions, such as coronations and other official events, where they added to the emperor's grandeur and majesty.
Today, the steel gauntlets of Emperor Maximilian I are considered to be one of the most important works of art from the 16th century. They are currently housed in the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna, Austria, where they are on display for visitors to admire and appreciate.
