The portrait precisely replicates the visual style of female members of the Augustan imperial family. The hairstyle closely resembles that typically worn by Livia, wife of Emperor Augustus as a young woman, but it has also been suggested that the sitter is actually Octavia, sister of Augustus. The exceptional craftsmanship is consistent with high-quality imperial portraits. This object is part of "Scan The World".
