Augustus' control of power throughout the Empire was so absolute that it allowed him to name his successor, a custom that had been abandoned and derided in Rome since the foundation of the Republic.
Augustus was deified soon after his death, and both his borrowed surname, Caesar, and his title Augustus became the permanent titles of the rulers of Rome for the next 400 years, and were still in use at Constantinople fourteen centuries after his death.
Augustus' ultimate legacy was the peace and prosperity the empire enjoyed for the next two centuries under the system he initiated.

He was appalled by modernism, which he referred to as "screw -ball art," and yet his landscapes and still life paintings increasingly grew looser, showing the influence of some of the "isms" he so assiduously avoided.
He was the first Nebraska artist to paint regularly in the Southwest, where from 1920 he established a seasonal pattern of working in Taos and then moving onto Arizona.
For sixty years, Dunbier maintained a studio in Omaha but traveled continuously, seldom missing a season in the Southwest and getting regularly to the East and West Coasts and Rocky Mountains.
