- Tanım
The idealized head of Augustus is turned slightly to his I. The sharp lines for eyebrows are prominent; the large eyes have no markings for pupil or iris. The nose is sharp and pointed, the mouth small. The face is attractive, but remarkably lacking in character. The hair is arranged in the typical manner with flat locks at sides and back, deeper ones in front.
Poulsen places this later than the Prima Porta Augustus (p. 65).
- Condition

Minor chipping on ears and l. eye and eyebrow.
