Book Greek and Roman Painting and the Digital Humanities

Download or read book Greek and Roman Painting and the Digital Humanities written by Marie-Claire Beaulieu and published by . This book was released on 2021-09 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This volume is a groundbreaking discussion of the role of digital media in research on ancient painting, and a deep reflection on the effect of digital media in opening the field to new audiences. The study of classical art always oscillates between archaeology and classics, between the study of ancient texts and archaeological material. For this reason, it is often difficult to collect all the data, to have access to both types of information on an equal basis. The increasing development of digital collections and databases dedicated both to archaeological material and ancient texts is a direct response to this problem. The book's central theme is the role of the digital humanities, especially digital collections such as the "Digital Milliet", in the study of ancient Greek and Roman painting. Part one focuses on the transition between the original book version of the Recueil Milliet and its digital incarnation. Part two addresses the application of digital tools to the analysis of ancient art. Part three focuses on ancient wall painting. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, classics, archaeology, and digital humanities"--

Book Greek Painting Techniques and Materials from the Fourth to the First Century BC

Download or read book Greek Painting Techniques and Materials from the Fourth to the First Century BC written by Ioanna Kakoulli and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides the first comprehensive overview of the techniques and materials used in a range of monumental paintings from the Late Classical to the Graeco-Roman period reflecting the Hellenistic culture. Based primarily on the technical examination and analyses of wall paintings, painted architectural elements and marble monuments, the scientific study of materials provides information on the chemical composition of the plasters, the nature of pigments and their microstructure and identifies patterns of trade and methods of manufacture (if synthesised). The results suggest a highly developed and cosmopolitan culture, encompassing the entire Mediterranean region and beyond, from the mountains of Macedonia to the deserts of Ptolemaic Egypt and the Eurasian Plateau, throughout which ideas and goods flowed freely.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Greek and Roman Methods of Painting: Some Comments on the Statements Made by Pliny and Vitruvius About Wall and Panel Painting IF we investigate the technical processes of past ages we find that 'changes were very slowly introduced, and that a method of attaining the desired result, having been brought to perfection, remained unaltered from generation to generation. This conservative habit is peculiarly to be found associated with the artistic crafts, which even to-day, in spite of the discoveries of chemists and the introduction of machinery, have undergone little modification.

Book The Invention of Art History in Ancient Greece

Download or read book The Invention of Art History in Ancient Greece written by Jeremy Tanner and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-03-23 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The ancient Greeks developed their own very specific ethos of art appreciation, advocating a rational involvement with art. This book explores why the ancient Greeks started to write art history and how the writing of art history transformed the social functions of art in the Greek world. It looks at the invention of the genre of portraiture, and the social uses to which portraits were put in the city state. Later chapters explore how artists sought to enhance their status by writing theoretical treatises and producing works of art intended for purely aesthetic contemplation which ultimately gave rise to the writing of art history and to the development of art collecting. The study, which is illustrated throughout and which draws on contemporary perspectives in the sociology of art, will prompt the student of classical art to rethink fundamental assumptions on Greek art and its cultural and social implications."--BOOK JACKET.
