[Illustration: FIG. 137.--STATUE OF SOPHOKLES WEARING THE _Himation_.] For men there was also a tunic similar to that worn by the Greeks; but in place of the himation the Roman _toga_ was worn, a garment of entirely different shape. In the relief of a cutler's shop, which is exhibited in Case 41, the shopman wears the tunic without a belt, while the customer, who has just come in from the street, wears the toga as well (fig. 193). In that of the forge, in Case 48, both the smiths have the tunic alone, with but the right shoulders unfastened and the skirts girt up to the knee in Greek fashion (fig. 192; compare fig. 135). Yet the Roman tunic seems already to have departed from the Greek pattern in having sleeves, though only to the elbows. Sleeved tunics were not unknown to the Greeks, whose slaves are often represented in this dress; but it was a foreign habit, and as such avoided. [Illustration: FIG. 138.--A HORSEMAN WEARING THE _Chlamys_.] [Illustration: FIG. 139.--DIAGRAM ILLUSTRATING THE SHAPE OF THE TOGA.] The shape of the toga was roughly semicircular, the straight edge being about six yards long and the width in the middle about two yards, as in the diagram (fig. 139). The simplest mode of putting it on was to place one end on the left shoulder, with the straight edge nearest the centre of the body and the point almost touching the ground. The left hand would be just covered by the curved edge. The rest was then passed behind the back, over or under the right arm, and over the left shoulder again, so that the point hung almost to the ground behind. This was also a method of wearing the Greek himation, and it is difficult to distinguish the two garments when so arranged; but a close examination will discover the sharp point and the curved edge in the case of the toga. At the end of the Republic and under the Empire, to which period most of the monuments belong, more elaborate fashions were developed, as in fig. 140, from a statuette in the Bronze Room. We turn to the accessories of the dress and the toilet in Table Case F. [Illustration: FIG. 140.--BRONZE STATUETTE OF A ROMAN WEARING TUNIC AND TOGA. 1:2.] =Greek and Roman Footwear.=--The general distinction was that the Greeks wore both sandals, and also boots or shoes. The Romans wore the boot, the _calceus_, but disapproved of the sandal. Part of Cicero's charge against Verres was that he wore sandals, as well as other Greek dress. The objects shown in Case F are either actual shoes and sandals or representations of them from works of art, such as fragments of statues; or applications of the device of a foot to the decoration of such things as vases, lamps, tripod-feet, etc.
