dc.description | Closer frontal view of right panel relief of Aeneas Sacrificing to the Penates, showing detail, depicting stylized temple in the upper left (according to tradition, the Trojan hero turned his house on the acropolis of Lavinium into a temple); Dedicated on 30 January 9 BCE, the altar was erected in the Campus Martius by the Roman Senate to commemorate Augustus' return from Spain and Gaul on 4 July 13 BCE. The best-known exemplar of Augustan art, it is typified by its eclectic mix of Classical and Hellenistic elements and skillful amalgam of Roman myth-history and contemporary events.
