Artwork Description

Oil on canvas, stretched and ready to hang.

Signed on the front.

This painting began by drawing inspiration from a bust of the Roman Emperor Augustus. It is in fact based on what is known as the Meroe Head of Augustus, a bronze bust that would have been part of a full-length statue. It was discovered in Sudan in 1910.

The bust now is of various shades of green which I decided to play with in this work.
