Augustus, the name that echoes through history. From the majestic Augustus Prima Porta statue to the captivating portrait by Madame Suggia in 1920-1923, this name carries weight and significance. In 1933, artist Augustus John left his mark with a stunning piece called "Madame Suggia, " showcasing his talent and skill. The Vatican in Italy proudly displays a grand statue of Augustus, reminding us of his powerful reign as Emperor. The Cafe Royal became a hub for creativity and inspiration where Augustus John's artistry flourished alongside other great minds like Hoffmann. Their conversations over cups of steaming soup fueled their artistic endeavors. Even in the 1970s, the Off Licence establishments carried on the legacy of Augustus, providing libations to those seeking solace or celebration. Licensed Victuallers Asylum stood as a testament to his influence on society. The Nation Portrait Gallery immortalized him through an exquisite portrait capturing his essence and charisma. His presence was felt even beyond borders as he inspired artists like William Butler Yeats who created masterpieces under his watchful eye. Not only did he leave an indelible mark on art but also had an impact on politics and royalty. As Emperor from 27BC - AD14, he shaped Rome's destiny with wisdom and vision. Prince Augustus Frederick Duke Of York And Albany paid homage to this influential figure through engravings that still grace our history books today. Augustus is more than just a name; it represents power, creativity, and leadership throughout centuries past. Whether it be statues or portraits or even simple off licences carrying his legacy forward – each mention brings forth memories of greatness embodied by one man whose influence continues to resonate across time.
