Regina’s Roman Tombstone at South Shields

Illustrator not identified

A seated woman occupies a pedimented architectural frame above a long inscription. The stone is Regina’s Roman tombstone from South Shields, identified by its inscription and the Arbeia museum record. Waddell reproduces it while discussing a British woman married to Barates. The worn face, folds of the dress and domestic objects remain visible in this historical reproduction.
