Roman art : some of its principles and their application to early Christian painting
Roman art : some of its principles and their application to early Christian painting is a 1900 art-historical study by Franz Wickhoff and Eugénie Strong, published in London and New York, written for scholars and students of classical and early Christian art. Its plates are black-and-white photographic reproductions of reliefs and wall paintings, including a relief of the Temple menorah, a frieze of a sacrifice, a Pompeian-style interior with seated figures, and a painted scene of pipe-playing shepherds with animals, useful to designers studying ancient narrative composition, figure grouping and framing.
