Front view of the Temple of Augustus and Livia in Vienna. The drawing is in landscape format. It is framed in ink. Traces of watercolor, an arrow and inscriptions are visible in the margins. The margins have been trimmed.
The Temple of Augustus stands in the forum square. In the foreground, several figures are gathered in front of the building. The pseudo-peripteral temple features a hexastyle façade with six Corinthian columns surmounted by a triangular pediment with a smooth tympanum.
