Default Multicoloured antiquity

Article as exhibition is quite old - 2008.

Art historians have always known that the Greeks and Romans painted statues, it is with time they reopened in his classic white.
Now a research team from Harvard University , originally launched in Arthur M. Sackler Museum of the university had been working on the reconstruction of color aktichnoy sculpture. The main project was an enthusiastic German specialist Professor Vincenzo Brinkmann , who developed the method of work .

Its results were presented at the exhibition Gods In Colour: Painted Sculpture of Classical Antiquity ", which was held in the United States and in many European museums .

Caligula is particularly impressive . Habitual unpainted bust shows a much more mature man. And then - a boy . vicious boy .
