[edit] Augustus of Prima Porta

Original - A 2.04 m statue of Augustus Caesar, found in 1863 and on display today at the Vatican Museums. Cupid, son of Venus, rides on a dolphin at his feet, a reference to the claim that the Julian Family was descended from Venus.

Reason
Good size and technical quality, enc. for the man himself (facial features are accurate) as well as for the sculpture styles of the culture (Greek/Hellenistic inspirations and styles)

  • Oppose: by TheOtherSiguy. And it's not sharp enough, too. —αἰτίας discussion 03:40, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak Oppose An encyclopedic image, but due to technical concerns it cannot be an FP. A better picture can be taken. --Sharkface217 07:22, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
