It analyses the way in which architecture is represented, its function within the pictorial context, and how it is integrated into the triad of space – actor – action. As well as the most obvious differences, such as the representation of perspective, the analysis reveals other variations. In general, the southern Italian depictions tend to display more interest on the part of the vase painters in the buildings as artefacts in themselves, with specific aesthetic and architectonic qualities, than is observable in Attic vase painting, even in the Classical and Late Classical periods. By contrast, the main attraction of architectural depiction for Archaic and Early Classical vase painters obviously lay in its semantic potential.

Our project fo-cuses on documenting and digitizing to make more broadly accessible the first-century handwritten wall-inscriptions, also called graffiti, in Herculaneum. Following an overview of the presence of ancient graffiti in Herculaneum, this report details the methodology we used to locate and document the inscriptions and the preservation status of ancient graffiti in each insula, or city-block, of the excavations. We further describe the preliminary results of the project’s documentation efforts. We are currently studying, processing, and digitizing these inscriptions and contributing them for inclusion in the Epigraphic Database Roma and EAGLE, the Europeana network of Ancient Greek and Latin Epigraphy. We conclude with a brief mention of development of The Ancient Graffiti Project, the digital resource and search engine devoted to ancient handwritten inscriptions.
