This book provides a general survey of Roman wall-painting from the second century BC through to the fourth century AD, tracing its origins, its chronological development, its subjects, its techniques, and its social context. It deals particularly with the paintings from the buried cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum, and its main purpose is to provide a summary of the subject.
