Le Tombe Dipinte Della Bulgaria: Tra l'Eta Classica E La Prima Eta Ellenistica

This contextual study of funerary painting, using 3D technology to reveal faded imagery, sheds new light on artistic, social and religious traditions of the Thracian elite, and is the first analysis of all pictorial documents discovered so far in 5th-3rd century BC tumular tombs in today’s Bulgaria. As new studies detect similar patterns in other arts, painting reveals the impact of Greek art on Thracian culture, far before the Hellenistic koine, and also its fierce defence of local traditions.
