Painted by an anonymous artist in the 16th century, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures 103x79.5 cm and is housed at the National Museum in Stockholm. The couple's aristocratic status is evident from their exquisite attire and accessories. Augustus dons a magnificent costume adorned with a ruff collar and a hat that exudes power and authority.
