Did Romans have visual representations of the empires boundaries? And if so, did rulers use these as propaganda directed towards the public?

I’m thinking of the regular use of maps of the British Empire in pictures and publications, and seeing that red spread across the map must have been a striking visual. But I don’t know if I’ve ever seen a contemporary example of a roman visualization.

This might be a byproduct of the images being on paper or wood, and therefore lost, but does anyone have more to add?
