The name of the statue is Augustus of Prima Porta and is a <span>high marble statue of </span>Augustus Caesar. A staff, like the one he is holding, symbolized leadership in Roman culture.

I hope that this is the answer that you were looking for and it has helped you.
I've found that three of the most important techniques are "Oil, Fresco, and Tempera" and if you take a look of the paintings you can actually see that they are really I could say creamy, realistic, colorful, like "hard worked", you can truly see every brush-stroke and they also depict beauty of the human body.
And, on the other hand we have the "new techniques" where you find works that are also realistic but not as creamy and hard worked as the old, in that type of works you can also see that there's not a lot of work with brush-strokes like in the old ones.
In the words of my pottery teacher, anybody that makes art is an artist. So with the drawings you’re making now, you’re an artist. Your drawings might not look like Da Vinci, but that’s because he practiced for years and years to get his work to where he wanted it. The key to getting better at art is really just practicing. Practice as much as you can. Read or watch guides, you could probably even practice with a “how to draw” book. Just keep practicing, and you’ll get better. Don’t be too hard on yourself. You’re just learning, and you’re trying to get better. Be nice to yourself. I wish you the best!
