Augustus the Great: A Regal Sip into the Past This 18th-century print, titled 'Augustus Drinking from a Golden Dish,' offers a glimpse into the rich history of the Roman Empire and the mythology surrounding its first emperor, Augustus. Augustus Caesar (63 BC – 14 AD) is depicted here as a god, reclining on a sumptuous couch, with one hand raised in a gesture of benevolence, while he takes a leisurely sip from a golden dish. The emperor's divine status was a common representation in Roman art, emphasizing his power and authority. The golden dish, a symbol of wealth and luxury, is adorned with intricate designs and embellished with precious gems, reflecting the opulence of the Roman court. The background of the print is filled with various phenomena, including a radiant sun, a majestic peacock, and a bountiful harvest scene, symbolizing the abundance and prosperity of the empire under Augustus' rule. The month of August, named after the emperor, is a reminder of the profound impact Augustus had on ancient history. He was the founder of the Roman Principate, a political and social order that transitioned the Roman Republic into an empire. Augustus' reign marked the beginning of the Pax Romana, a period of relative peace and stability that lasted for over two centuries. This beautiful 18th-century print, with its intricate details and historical significance, invites us to take a moment to reflect on the enduring legacy of Augustus and the Roman Empire.
