Date: c. 1600 Description: Copperplate engraving by Sadeler, Egidius (1570 Antwerp - Prague 1629) and Sadeler, Marcus Christoph (before 1614 Munich - Prague 1660) after Titian (1477 Pieve di Cadore - Venice 1576). Marcus Salvius Otho (32-69 A.D.) was one of the four Roman emperors of the quadruple imperial year 69. The copperplate engraving is particularly striking in that his right arm is bare, but his left arm is clad in 17th century armour. It is an interesting portrait of an ancient figure, who appears to have been transported to the 17th century by the armour.
