EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a gold multiple of the revered Emperor Augustus, who reigned from 31 BC to AD 14. The image captures the obverse side of the coin, revealing a striking portrait of Augustus wearing a laurel wreath upon his head. Minted around 07-06 BC by Roman craftsmen during the first century BC, this artifact now resides in the Museo Archeologico Nazionale in Naples, Campania, Italy. The inscription on this remarkable piece reads "CAESAR AVGUSTVS DIVIF PATER PATRIAE" emphasizing Augustus' divine status and his role as father of his country. This particular photograph was taken by eRaffaello Bencini and is now out of copyright. Augustus, also known as Octavian or Gaius Octavius, holds immense historical significance as he was Rome's first emperor. His profile captured on this coin reflects not only his power but also his regal presence. The attention to detail in this artwork is evident through every contour and expression etched onto the precious metal. A© Raffaello Bencini has masterfully preserved this momentous piece through photography for all art enthusiasts to admire and appreciate today. It serves as a testament to both ancient craftsmanship and the lasting legacy of one of history's most influential figures – Emperor Augustus.
