Answer:

At Caesar’s funeral, Anthony refers to Brutus as a nobleman. Even after conspiring to kill Caesar and going to war, and taking his own life, Antony says Brutus was the "noblest Roman of them all''. Explain the irony and purpose of this characterization.

The irony in the statement "noblest Roman of them all'' is that Brutus was hesitant when it came to killing Caesar.  The reason that you would consider that as irony  is because Brutus says “If there be any in this assembly, any dear friend of Caesar's, to him I say that Brutus' love to Caesar was no less than his. If then that friend demand why Brutus rose against Caesar, this is my answer: Not that I loved Caesar less, but that I loved Rome. As you can see Brutus only killed Caesar to protect Rome.
