In Rome, tattoo artists are collaborating with historians to bring ancient Roman motifs—like laurel wreaths, SPQR emblems, and mythological figures—into modern tattoo art. Clients receive background lessons on the historical and political significance of the chosen symbol.
This initiative transforms tattoos into cultural storytelling. For many Italians, it’s a way to honor their heritage while tourists see it as a lasting souvenir tied to one of the world’s greatest civilizations.
