Statue of the Divine

Behold the statue, and see the gods made real.

Erected in the villa of Livia Drusilla (later known as Julia Augusta), wife of Caesar Augustus, the Augustus of Prima Porta ran contrary to the Emperor's desire not to be praised as divine. At first glance, the statue provided an atypical depiction of Imperial grandeur - of a triumphant general’s oration. However, Augustus is barefoot, something typically reserved for gods and heroes. The cupid at his feet also references Caesar's claim of descent from Venus (Cupid is Venus' son). Also, the detailed breastplate depicts a celebration of Augustus’ success as a diplomat, as well as a warrior. The statue remains an important icon of the Imperial Cult, venerating Rome’s ‘first citizen’ as a god.
