Graham, Rich, others..<br>
This is not my repaint/reconstruction , it comes from a fast google search of the net. I don't know who the artist is, but it comes from the very nice Waldgirmes site: [url=http://www.waldgirmes.de/roemer/" target="top]www.waldgirmes.de/roemer/ augustus.htm[/url].<br>
<br>
Nathan, I could easily produce a retouched version with Photoshop, but it would take me a day or so the get the details right.<br>
<br>
Having said that, I agree with Rich that the blue&red colors don't seem to lifelike. But I remain more convinced of a purple color instead of red. The white chosen by this particular artist therefore seems wrong.<br>
<br>
Graham, I think life-like does not refer to the details of the painting, but to the colors.<br>
