In this episode of The Glorious Beard, we explore how facial hair has carried meaning across history, myth, and film.
From Emperor Hadrian’s break with Roman tradition to Father Time’s symbolic white beard, and from Hatshepsut’s ceremonial beard of authority to the cinematic choices in Gladiator 2, we look at how beards communicate power, wisdom, and identity.
Whether it’s a political statement in ancient Rome, a visual shorthand for the passage of time, a reinforcement of pharaonic authority, or a subtle storytelling tool in modern cinema, these beards take us through time and tradition.
