Marcus Agrippa: Right-hand Man of Caesar Augustus
presented with the toga covering the head, such as he appears on the Ara Pacis ( Ibid , pp. 55–60). The third type she identifies share the characteristics of a bust found at Butrint, displaying a less naturalistic style, where the hair is less dense and the fringe combed forward over the brow, covering a receding hairline ( Ibid , p. 60).
    (c) Cameos
    Several cameos produced in the Roman period depict Agrippa. The Bibliothèque National in Paris has two cameos. The first is a two-sided cameo carved from agate. Measuring 35mm × 628mm the obverse has a profile of Agrippa facing left wearing his combined corona navalis and muralis on his head and a commander’s paludamentum over his shoulder. The second, measuring 34mm × 648mm, shows a laureate head of Augustus (left) facing a head of Agrippa crowned with a corona rostrata and muralis (right).
    The Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, England has an onyx cameo (inv. P. 35 (CM)) which measures 95mm × 95mm showing Agrippa in profile facing left wearing a corona navalis .
    The Medagliere Capitolino, Rome has an exquisite cameo (inv. 6738) of incised carnelian. Measuring 1.9cm in diameter, the finely carved, naturalistic profile of Agrippa shows him facing left wearing his combined corona navalis and muralis .
    Agate was the choice of material of the artist of the cameo in the Pappalardo Collection, Catania. The piece is oval in shape and 60mm high. The beautiful portrait, which faces right, recalls the profile of the Agrippa in the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek (inv. 608).
