Description

This work was inspired by the illusionistic architectural fantasy paintings (trompe l’oeil) from the walls of the rich in Pompeii and Herculaneum. The wall paintings were done primarily in the late Second Style, also known as the Architectural Style, (classification formulated by August Mau, a 19th century German scholar) which employed techniques that gave the walls of a room the feeling of dimension and a larger space.

Wall paintings done in the second style from one of the bedrooms of the Villa Boscoreale, a villa rustica approximately 1.5 kilometers outside of Pompeii.

This work was executed as a 3-D graphic using Sketchup, Modo, Zbrush, Octane Render software by Sebastian Michalski. Architectural elements (Corinthian columns) were based on the work of Andrea Palladio, found in his book “I Quattro Libri Dell’Architectura” Book I, chapter XVII-the Corinthian Order, reprint 1760.
