Abstract (english)
The objective of this study is to improve the knowledge of polychrome Roman sarcophagi by showing the first observations on the subject achieved by a combination of archaeological research and scientific results. The colour palette and the painting techniques used are demonstrated: how the extant colours were often obtained from a careful mixture of pigments or overlapping colours, either directly applied to the marble surface or, less frequently, over a whitish ground layer. The Roman painters... More paid attention to such pictorial effects as the lighting and rendering of minimal details, to achieve a realistic effect. The paper also illuminates some recurring technical and stylistic elements, regardless of the iconographic themes and the historical period. Therefore, the ancient polychromy of Roman marble sarcophagi, where it is still well preserved, appears to be an art of great refinement and technical sophistication, at the same level as the marble carving.
