An early to mid 20th Century
hand-painted plaster relief frieze of Augustus Caesar (born Octavian), the first Emperor of Rome.
Adorned with a vibrant green laurel wreath, a timeless symbol of victory, honor, and academic achievement.
Features a bold oxblood red toga or cloak, meticulously hand-painted to add depth and a historical "Grand Tour" feel to the piece.
The plaster is finished with a weathered, cream-toned patina, giving it the authentic look of a reclaimed architectural fragment or a vintage museum cast.
Possibly from G. Ruggeri studio or similar Italian "Grand Tour" workshops specialized in creating these patinated casts for tourists and decorators.
