Comics have the power to bring history alive, and to *finally* correct the idea that ancient sculpture was pure white. Look at that gorgeous statue group, and the #polychromed architecture. 😍

@DimitriTilloi In the #Alix comics, there was a wonderful scene in the Telesterion in Eleusis (as seen in the Victor-Auguste Blavette print from the exhibition, also copied below). Appropriately, the statue is fully #polychromed.

@TeleFashion Thank god men are *finally* moving away from the dull black and white formal and business attire. And it's not just a look for the younger crowd. Look at what Seth Rogen pulled off at the Emmys. Color shouldn't just be for the women. We've finally #polychromed the men! 😆

@HCTRoman @romanmosaics Um ... what are the statues doing in the courtyard? And *why* are they not #polychromed? 🎨 😉

A bit late for #EpigraphyTuesday, but here's a wonderful mosaic with a funerary theme (odd?). It seems to show a learned boy or man with a scroll, wearing a toga, sitting next to a duck (?) and a fully #polychromed Herm. And a child's tombstone. Is that the boy on the left? 1/

@Chucho05087033 @marinamaral2 Thanks! Yes, that reconstruction is in my folder of prime examples. It's by Ádám Németh and all of his work is excellent - even his statues are #polychromed. His Ephesus reconstructions are at https://t.co/AkT4xIppVn.

If there was any doubt that ancient Roman statues were #polychromed (colored), this fresco alone should put it to rest. A priest of Isis carries two candelabra in front of a fully colored statue of Harpocrates, son of Isis and Serapis. #FrescoFriday #polychromy
