"Virgilio Legge L'eneide Ad Augusto" (English: "Virgil Reading the Aeneid to Augustus") is a neoclassical painting by the Italian artist Vincenzo Camuccini, created in the early 19th century. The artwork is a historical tableau that depicts the ancient Roman poet Virgil reading his epic poem, the Aeneid, to the emperor Augustus and his sister Octavia. The scene is a romanticized representation of a possibly apocryphal event where Virgil is said to have read parts of his unfinished epic to the emperor.

In the painting, Camuccini captures the moment with a dramatic flair, characteristic of the neoclassical style that sought to revive the aesthetics of classical antiquity. The figures are arranged in a manner reminiscent of Roman frescoes and sculptures, with Augustus and his entourage attentively listening to the poet. The composition is balanced and harmonious, with a clear focus on the central action of Virgil's recitation.

Vincenzo Camuccini (1771–1844) was a prominent Italian painter of the neoclassical period, known for his historical and mythological scenes. His work often reflected the influence of the Renaissance masters and the classical art of Greece and Rome. "Virgilio Legge L'eneide Ad Augusto" is considered one of Camuccini's masterpieces, showcasing his skill in composition, his meticulous attention to detail, and his ability to convey narrative through visual art.

The painting is not only a tribute to the cultural achievements of ancient Rome but also reflects the 19th-century European fascination with classical literature and history. It serves as an example of how neoclassical artists sought to use historical and mythological subjects to comment on contemporary issues of their time, such as the role of the artist in society and the relationship between art and power.

"Virgilio Legge L'eneide Ad Augusto" remains an important work in the oeuvre of Vincenzo Camuccini and a significant piece within the context of neoclassical painting, illustrating the enduring influence of classical antiquity on European art and culture.
