A Roman Slave Market

A Roman Slave Market by Jean-Léon Gérôme . 1884, Oil on canvas.  http://art.thewalters.org/detail/22738/a-roman-slave-market/

These first two images I took while viewing the From Rye to Raphael: The Walters Story exhibit at The Walters Art Museum in Baltimore, Maryland. The last is from The Walters online image database. http://art.thewalters.org/detail/22738/a-roman-slave-market/ 
This painting is connected to an earlier work by Jean-Léon Gérôme, Phryne before the Areopagus, 1861 Oil on Canvas (below)
