Historical Note
This facing portrait type of Augustus and Agrippa, the only men it depicts as true co-rulers, is one of the most striking of the Augustan period. Both are shown togate (civilian dress), holding a scroll (document of authority), with a capsa (scroll-box) at their feet. It reflects the period c. 18–13 BC when Agrippa held tribunician power alongside Augustus — the closest Rome came to a formal dyarchy. Agrippa died in 12 BC before Augustus.
