Gallery Talk: Visible and Invisible Colors in Ancient Greek and Roman Art (Chinese) 中文導覽：看得見與看不見的色彩
Harvard Classics Lectures
This event requires registration; see further details below.
參加本活動需要提前註冊報名；詳情請見下文。
Which colors did ancient Greek and Roman artists use, and how have we discovered their choices? What is polychromy, and how does it influence our understanding of the ancient world? This talk explores both the overt and covert colors within our ancient art collection, with a special emphasis on Greek vase paintings, marble sculpture, and Roman wall paintings.
古人用了哪些顏色，我們又是如何得知的？什麽是多彩畫法，這個技法又是如何影響我們對古代世界的理解的？此次中文導覽重點關註古希臘花瓶繪畫、大理石雕塑和古羅馬壁畫，探索館藏中可見和不可見的顏色。
Led by:
Vivian Jin, Ph.D. candidate, Department of the Classics, Harvard University; and graduate student intern, Division of Asian and Mediterranean Art, Harvard Art Museums
