Popvlvsque Giovanna Photograph by Carlo Matteo Golia & Pietro de Tilla

Giovanna, a woman who wears a centurion costume and poses for tourists for a fee on a daily basis, is the subject of this photograph by Carlo Golia. Part of a 10-piece limited series named Popvlvsque, it celebrates Rome's glorious past while revealing a deeper interpretation key that invites the observer to consider the mutual exploitation relationship between the centurion and tourists.
