Description:

|
The concept of the official portrait was established under Caesar Augustus. When Augustus was crowned in the year 23 BCE, the figure of the princeps became one with the state. Official portraits in the Julio-Claudian dynasty are marked by an idealized classicism. Found in the Aula sacra of the theater in Merida, along with a head of Augustus, and another toga-clad figure, thought to be Augustus' successor and adopted son, Tiberius (the father of Drusus). Drusus Julius Caesar (14 BCE-23 CE) died at age 36 without becoming emperor. (Source: Madrid, Museo Arqueologico Nacional [website]; http://www.man.es/ma n/en)
