Victoria, mother of the usurper Victorinus, used her considerable wealth and political acumen to enable the succession of usurpers in Gaul. She assumed the imperial titles of Augusta and Mother of the Camps, wielding her resources and influence to support her son's claim to power and maintain the family's position among the competing factions of the late Roman Empire.
Description
A wealthy Roman woman whose bearing reflects both her imperial titles and her substantial resources. Her features carry the dignified authority of one who has learned to wield maternal influence and financial power in the complex politics of imperial succession.
