God of the Grove
Ave Imperator!
The last known surviving intact full body sculpture of Augustus Caesar the very first Roman Emperor after Julius Caesar was assassinated. Found in an ancient villa in 1863.

hmm... i have to agree with the others. this is especially bad, practically satirical at this point. but whatever you like senpai, assuming there wasn't ridiculous effort put into a shitpost
>>6867689
stretch, but any 1440p+ version? really really want
>>6868229

>>6868015
I remember that shit from highschool, he was Caeser's surrogate son. And I may be totally wrong but I rember him as one of the only non chaotic roman emperors.
>>6876006
His crest is not positionated as a general or a commander, what's with that?
My fav.
>>6876029
>graffiti on art
urgh people are scum
>>6877039
Leonidas was one of two Kings of Sparta, not a commander (albeit did command the army)
Also the militaristic Greek government who commissioned the statue wasn't known for historical accuracy, they just wanted propaganda
This statue is in the modern city of Sparta
>>6877515
IIRC that statue is in Cleveland
>>6876030
Fuck, this is spectacular
>>6868767

This isn't the original at least, only a copy.
>>6880147

>>6872268
looks like a gessaffelstein cover
>>6868571
That's straight fucking garbage compared to everything else in this thread. Fuck Off.
>>6876709
He was one of the few emperor's you would or should ever respect
99% of them were pieces of shit that failed their people and shit on the name of the Rome
Pic related is what you should see in your mind's eye when you think of Rome
He is the very embodiment of what Rome was and should be remembered as(though Marcus Aurelius could fit too)
Unfortunately there aren't any descent surviving statues of him
>>6868230
Ugly as fuck
>>6876184
So does the sculpture
So what's the problem?
>>6878510
To add to what this Anon said, he also didn't wear a fucking breastplate so it's not like they cared much for accuracy
>>6876030
I would literally kill to have quads like those
hot damn this is a good thread

Does anyone have the Rape of Persephone by Hades
>>6882083
this might be it but that looks more like posidon or zeus than hades
thanks
TFW you were in Italy and an Iphone was the best camera you had.
Would have made some beautiful photos.
>>6882061
yee. this man deserves a lot of that credit. i don't think that the survival of his image is as powerful as the work he put into capturing the essence of roman history and culture
>>6881014
ye, but that isn't even close to 1080p, much less 1440p or 4k. unlucky
>>6882463
what am i looking at? album covers dont make the best wallpapers aspect ratio-wise
>>6887711
besides >>6882083 the picture directly above your post is what you're looking for, no?
>>6887732
what a shame, got higher resolution? this is beautiful. what's the name?
here's a sloppy edit of a pic i took at a retired nba player's pool lol
Stoicism FTW
>>6872182
anyone know what the title of this is? I got that it's by Georg Pezolt/Pezoldt, but can't find a title anywhere.
>>6888827
Never mind, after some exhaustive research I determined that it is titled "Salzburg from a Loggia" or "Salzburg von einer Loggia" if you prefer the German.
>>6882106

>>6888847
o shit, sick. thanks for that kind anon
decent image i found on google
>>6868015
He never called himself Imperator btw.
He called himself Princeps and everyone thought that the Republic was still alive
>>6876709
>. And I may be totally wrong but I rember him as one of the only non chaotic roman emperors.

Best thread /wg has had in a while
>>6868571

Glad to see a thread like this. I have a huge sculpture folder, but I'm not sure how many are ideal for wallpapers. I'll look around.

Sorry to bring down the mood lol
also not a wallpaper just but I used in an edit of mine if anyone wants to see.
>>6888871
Contemporary Art != Modern Art
Don't get me wrong, I hate that shit too, but Vincent van Gogh and Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec were Modern artists. The Dada movement is when everything went to shit.
>>6867689
honest to god this shit it's just fucking baffling to me
>>6872182
I want to be in this place so bad
