1 ROMAN ART BY: MAX HARRIS

2 ROMAN PAINTINGS  In Ancient Rome they painted mostly on wood. Much of the art consisted of the human body.  The sculptures are mostly oh the human body as well.  They painted people's portraits because they believed that having a well done picture of a person who had died kept them happy, so they would not haunt you.

3 CONTINUED  The ancient Roman art we see today was greatly included by all of the countries and regions they invaded and took over.  The rulers of ancient Rome would also have people paint huge murals covering whole walls or roofs of their palaces.  QUESTIONS?

4 SCULPTURES AND ARCHITECTURE  Most sculptures were copied, like most of their art, from the Greeks.  Most of them were of naked women or leaders of the empire, soldiers and famous men in Rome.  Carved out of marble

5 ARCHITECTURE  They would build large buildings or bridges to emphasize their power.  On buildings there was a lot of scrolls and patterns decorating the walls and doors.  The Roman Colosseum is a perfect example of how good Roman people were at building designs and adding lots of details.  QUESTIONS?

7 MOSAIC OF MENORAH  This is a beautiful piece of art made by an unknown artist. A mosaic is the art of creating images with an assemblage of small pieces of colored glass, stone, or other materials. It is a technique of decorative art or interior decoration. The amount of color used is extremely exquisite in that time period from 3 rd century to 5 th century A.D. When I look at this art piece I can see the eye Horus. He was a mythological god in ancient Egypt. That was later adopted by the romans to be called Harpocrates. Menorah was probably used because of the arch of Titus. In the arch of Titus this same type menorah is used.

8 RESEARCH  Found in Tyus  They think it was inspired by the emperor Titus. After the arch of Titus was done.  This art work was found well after the roman empire fell. Historian don’t know who made this piece.
