I went to watch the exhibition of Pompei in Yokohama Museum of Art.
Mount Vesuvius which was located in the southern part of Italy erupted
in August 24, 79. Pompei was buried under the volcanic ashes and
lied beneath ground for 1700 years. About the middle of 18 century,
people started to excavate the ruins. Pompei was known as a miraculous city,
because it told us people in Pompei's lifestyles, such as artifacts from
an excavation, wall paintings, sculptures, industrial art objects and daily
necessities while the Roman Empire was in its heyday.
I really enjoyed watching this exhibition. In addition, I was very surprised
at seeing that, because People who lived in Pompei about 2000 years ago
made many things which was delicate, perfect and fine!
I guess the technique was the same as it was today.
