The bust of Antonia Minor from Venice Archaeological Museum.

The younger daughter of Marcus Antonius and Octavia Minor, wife of Drusus the Elder and mother of Germanicus, Livilla, and Claudius, Antonia was held up as an example of a proper Roman matron, always dignified in her public and private dealings, severe with her children and loyal to her deceased husband’s memory, refusing to remarry after his untimely death, earning her the status of univira (a woman who was married only to one husband in her life).
