The Roman way of life and government was influenced by mos majorum (the ways of the ancestors); that is, tradition. The way of life of the Roman elites was also influenced by the Greeks.
The Etruscans came under increasing Roman influence and becamse so thoroughly Romanised that their civlilsation and even their language disappeared.
Medieval slavery was essentially a continuation of the Roman slave tradition, and was slowly on the decline. Enslaving non-Christians was seen as somewhat unseemly, and sources of pagan slaves were becoming limited on the continent.
The worship of a living person was considered un-Roman by the ancients. It was an eastern custom, but not a custom of the west. Augustus was merely following Roman tradition, just as Julius Caesar refused to be worshiped in Rome, although he wasworshiped as a god in the east.
Fresco's weren't done in the middle ages. I think you are thinking of Renaissance artist Michelangelo.
The fresco in this catacomb was painted in the Roman days. Therefore, the artist was Roman and used the style of the day to depict the images
painting onto wet plaster
Diego Rivera
Do you mean wet or dry fresco? In both cases, you need alkali-resistent pigments. In wet fresco (the original fresco technique) they're mixed with the plaster used to finish the wall, in dry fresco (fresco secco) a paint is made with mainly caseine. I've seen an old recipe that involves fresh cheese (which contains caseine)
Two possible reasons: Oil paint on a smooth surface makes for easier painting small details than fresco paint on a wall. A fresco is usually a large-format mural, intended to be seen from a distance.
The School of Athens is a famous fresco in the Vatican. It was painted in the early 16th century by Raffaello Sanzio, better known as "Raphael".
Fresco is created when earth tones are applied directly to wet plaster. The creation of paintings such as those within the Sistine Chapel were created in just such a manner.
The functions of sculpture in ancient Rome were the same as those in the Greek tradition. Statues were the a bit like an equivalent of paintings because both the Greeks and Romans only had fresco paintings. Originally Roman sculpture was portraiture (busts). Then they adopted Greek sculpture. The best sculptors were Greek. Most Roman sculptors made replica of the 'mass' market. Some Roman statues were about Greek myths.
The Romans contributed the mosaic, mural and the fresco to the art world.
Like everywhere else in the world art in the Roman Empire was made by specialised artist and artisans: sculptors, stone masons, potters, Makers of tiles and terracotta decorations, jewellers, silverware makers. The Romans also learnt fresco painting from the Greeks and they were made by specialised artists.
simple. Latin language = roman language
