This volume stems from many years of research in the field of art historiography of antiquity
and teaching the course Roman Art and Architecture at the Australian National University,
ANU, in Canberra, Australia. The title of the volume indicates that what is attempted here is
to establish some definitions of the Roman art practices as they pertain to the art
historiography texts in antiquity. These writers include Vitruvius, Pliny the Elder and their
more substantial texts on the arts, as well as some writing of Philostratus the Elder,
Philostratus the Younger and Callistratus on painting and sculpture respectively.
Chapter One discusses the Roman art historiographers and their contributions towards the
definitions of the Roman art and some of the Roman art constructs. It does so through an
analysis of some aspects of the texts of the five art historiographers with a particular focus on
the writings of Vitruvius and Pliny the Elder who both first published their respective w...orks
at the period of the Early Empire. The texts by the other art historiographers, given that they
pertain to specific phenomena in the Roman art, are discussed in another, upcoming volume
by the same author.
Chapter Two contextualises some of the postulates articulated by the art historiographers of
antiquity as discussed in Chapter One, and provides a brief overview of the Roman art
practices with the aim to contribute towards a definition of the Roman art. The art practices
and specific artworks that indicate the true origins of the Roman art are discussed here. They
include some postulates of the Greek art traditions, as recognised by Vitruvius and Pliny the
Elder, and of the Etruscan art traditions which both served as a conduit for many ideas from
the Greek art practices into the Roman art practices and provided their own contribution.
Some of the art practices of the Early Roman Empire are also discussed here as the practices
which set the background for much of the overall Roman art practices. The distinction
between the official, public art as juxtaposed to the art practices under private patronage and
for private use is also discussed.
Chapter Three consists of three large sub-chapters. The contexts of the Roman art are
examined here through an analysis of some specific ideas introduced or developed by the
Roman artists. These include the Roman portraiture; the renditions of figure within the space
of its composition as it appears in painting, narrative relief and Roman sculpture; and the
evolution of basilica, arch, and dome in Roman architecture. Thus this chapter constitutes a
brief overview of some of the characteristics of the Roman art as signalled by the art
historiographers of antiquity.
In this manner, this volume attempts to provide a contribution to the scholarship of
establishing a fuller definition of the Roman art practices.
