THE FORUM OF AUGUSTUS  His most ambitious project in Rome -> new forum built next to Julius Caesar’s forum -> white marble from Carrara in Italy, a new source -> from a city of bricks to a city of marble  Portrait statues of the Julian family lined the forum -> it becomes a kind of public atrium filled w/imagines
