In page Cornelia (mother of the Gracchi):

"

After her death, a marble statue of Cornelia was erected in Rome. It was "the first likeness of a secular Roman woman set up by her contemporaries in a public space."[citation needed] Her statue endured through the revolutionary reign of Sulla, and she became a model for future Roman women culminating with the portrait said to be of Helena, Emperor Constantine's mother, four hundred years later. Later, a conservative reaction caused the reference to her sons to be filed away and replaced with a reference to her father Africanus.[1] Today, only the base[2] has survived.
