A simply fabulous recreation of the buildings atop the Acropolis of Athens as they may have appeared in the C5th BC by @flyover_zone. #Polychromy is used for elements that are preserved and, hence, can be visualized with certainty or high probability. youtube.com/watch?v=53g_5GT4…

In the Baths of Caracalla, one finds this statue group of Hercules & Antaios! This is an example of a Roman sculptor adding new dynamism to the figures by representing Antaios as having serpentine legs! Learn more about this in Yorescape’s newest virtual tour! #roman #mythology

Have you had a chance to explore the Baths of Caracalla yet? We invite you to visit our newest Virtual Tour in the Yorescape App! #romanhistory #classics #romansculpture #romanmythology #romanempire

We know statues were present in the Baths of Caracalla, but how do we present sculpture when there is no specific hypothesis of restoration? In Yorescape we use TRANSPARENCY to flag the uncertainty, while presenting sculpture consistent with types found in comparable settings!
