Therkildsen** Abstract The high-gloss polish on Roman marble portraits has long been known as an extravagant stylistic feature dating from at least the 2nd century to approximately the 5th century CE. The high-gloss polish accentuates the natural aesthetic properties of the various marbles, that is, the natural luminosity of all white marble types. In the examination of the sculptures for traces of original polychromy, the visual appeal of a white, shiny marble surface has led most scholars to expect the high gloss polish to have been spared the application of any additional paint. The results were therefore surprising, when the Tracking Colour team in the summer of 2011 had seven Roman portraits with high-gloss surfaces dating from the 3rd century CE examined, revealing a fully-painted polychromy on all portraits. This paper presents the results and a new perspective on the role of white marble as a base for painted polychromy on three-dimensional Roman portraits. Keywords High-gloss polished marble, portraits, polychromy The nature of a polished marble surface A high-gloss polish should not be confused with a politur. A politur is an applied coating consisting of, for example, a wax- and/or oil-based mixture, which gives the surface a shiny texture. A polish on the other hand is a mechanical rubbing down of the stone through various stages, the final being a high-gloss. We know what tools were used for carving marble sculptures during the Roman Empire from literary and archaeological sources. The archaeological material includes depictions of tools and, in a few cases, the recovery of tools used in sculptural workshops. But for most parts it consists of “reading” marble sculptures in terms of the marks of chisels, files, rasps and abrasives (ROCKWELL 2004, 36-91; ROCKWELL 1993, 31-88). Based on such sources it can be concluded, that the Roman crafts- * Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek, Copenhagen, amsk@glyptoteket.dk. ** Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek, Copenhagen, rht@glyptoteket.dk. men used the same basic tools as were used by modern craftsmen until electric tools were introduced in the 20th century. Hammers and mallets were used as percussive tools for the different chisels. For the rough and also finer carving, point chisels were used in varying sizes, which could remove chunks of marble and accentuate delicate detailing. The tooth and flat chisels were used for evening the surface and giving shape to the sculpture. In some cases, the flat chisel was also used for finer shaping as can be seen on the hair of several Roman portraits. For the deep cutting and plastic rendering, the rounded chisels were used, which can be seen on elaborate, curly haircuts, beards and certain garments. In some cases such tool traces are caused by what is popularly referred to by archaeological scholars as “the running drill”, which basically consisted of a rapidly-rotated rounded chisel. Files and rasps were used for types of surface-finishing, ranging from rough textures to superficial, smooth patterns sometimes with the final touch of an abrasive. The abrasives varied according to the degree of smoothness (ROCKWELL 1993, 48-49). Mostly the whetstone would be applied, but for the very fine polished surface textures other abrasives were needed, about the nature of which we can, unfortunately, say very little. The high-gloss polish, with which this paper is concerned, is obtained by several stages of time-consuming rubbing of the marble surface gradually removing all tool traces visible to the naked eye. Peter Rockwell (ROCKWELL 2004, 31) and Michael Pfanner (PFANNER 1989, 228) have both suggested that the Roman craftsmen could have used lead wrapped within a piece of cloth. Whatever tools the Roman craftsmen used, the visual effect of the high-gloss polish is luminous, and combined with the time-consuming nature of its application, archaeologists and art historians have interpreted it as a high point of marble aesthetics and as a mark of excellent quality and craftsmanship, ruling out any fullypainted polychromy (POULSEN 1921, 89; Reuterswärd 1960, 220-223).

Tungsten light photography. (Photo: R. Therkildsen). 892 In Room 16, in the Glyptotek’s Roman portrait collection is a group of seven heads. With one exception they all represent young, clean-shaven men. Due to the discoveries in the summer of 2011 of traces of carnation colour on some of the portraits, it was decided to look deeper into the relationship between the highly-polished marble surface treatment and paint layers. This paper will focus on the results provided by three of these portraits: IN 821, IN 822 and IN 826 (Fig. 1, 2, 3) (JOHANSEN 1995, cat. no. 16, 17, 42). IN 826 represents the young Maximus, who was the son and heir of the Emperor Maximinus Thrax. He was proclaimed Caesar in 235, but then killed in 238, which places the date of the portrait somewhere in that period of time. IN 821 and IN 822 are identical and represent an unidentified youth. The stylistic rendering of the hair, along with the drilled pupils and chiselled eyebrows resemble those aspects of IN 826 and therefore date the portraits to the first half of the 3rd century AD. As is often the case with antique marbles in old collections we have no information as to the provenance of the portraits. Nor do we have any knowledge regarding restoration and conservation treatment before 1954. What we do know is that the portraits IN 821 and IN 822 were acquired in 1888 from the Roman art-dealer Fran- A. SKOVMØLLER, R. H. THERKILDSEN cesco Martinetti. The third portrait, IN 826, was acquired in 1890 from another art dealer, Alberici, also based in Rome. The portraits therefore most likely originate from Rome. And since IN 821 and IN 822 were acquired together and appear to be identically executed, one could assume that they originally also belonged together as they are displayed in the museum collection today. The portraits are executed in the same manner. They have short haircuts and clean-shaven faces. The hair strands are represented with a flat chisel, creating a hatched, punctuated surface texture. The chisel is also used to accentuate the delicate eyebrows, while the pupils are drilled. The skin surfaces of the portraits are polished to a high gloss resembling porcelain, which stands sharp textural contrast to the chiselled hair. IN 826 is shaped for insertion into a statue, herm or a bust. The neckline has been rounded and shaped by using a flat chisel on the back. IN 821 and IN 822 have both been cut off beneath the chin, and it is therefore impossible to say whether they were originally inserted into a sculpture as IN 826 or carved from one piece. Preservation Although the portraits are executed in the same manner, they differ in their state of preservation. IN 826 is missing its nose, chin and parts of both ears, but is, in other respects, in a relatively good state of preservation. The same can be said of IN 821, which is lacking its nose and small parts of both ears, while its “twin”, IN 822, is in a worse condition. Besides missing its nose, mouth and parts of both ears the portrait has scratches and cavities all over the surface in varying degrees, causing the left eye to be almost entirely missing. On all three portraits the marble surfaces are partly covered in a secondary calcareous layer, but skin areas such as the forehead and cheeks reveal the characteristic luminescent, glass-like appearance of a polished, fine-grained, white marble. However, on a microscopic level it becomes clear that the polished surface on the portraits is partly disturbed by modern intervention. A network of fine lines from abrasion is observed on polished parts as well as on parts covered with incrustation. At some point between excavation and acquisition the portraits have been deeply cleaned to the detriment of the original surface. Conservation reports and photographs from the museum archives reveal that all three portraits had their missing parts reconstructed in plaster up until the later half of the 1950s (Fig. 5-7). Between 1955 and 1958 all reconstructions were removed and the portraits were given new plinths and subjected to a standard cleaning process, which at that time consisted of water and rubbing with a hard brush. Such a treatment could explain some of the fine lines seen on the polished surfaces through the microscope. Some of the larger lines were most likely caused by an abrasive, perhaps used earlier in order to remove Fig. 4. Museum photograph of IN 821 from 1907. (Photo: V. Poulsen). Fig. 5.

For determination of the marble provenance, electromagnetic resonance spectroscopy (EPR) and stable isotope analysis were used (ATTANASIO 2003, 11-80; ATTANASIO et al. 2006, 17-60). Methodology The sequence of documentation and identification of traces of colour on the three portraits were based on a non-invasive approach and divided into two main steps: visual examination followed by technical imaging including microscopy, ultraviolet fluorescence imaging (UV-FL) and visible-induced luminescence (VIL). VIL-imaging is based on a significant property of Egyptian blue. When the synthetic pigment is excited with visible light, it emits infrared radiation that glows white in a VIL image (VERRI 2009, 1011-1021). Microscopy was accompanied by x-ray fluorescence spectrometry (XRF). Furthermore, a qualitative identification of the marble was considered important and sampling for isotopic analysis and thin-section microscopy was carried out. Samples were taken (≤0.5cm) from the broken part of the neck on all three portraits. Due to the characteristic 894 Results from the scientific examinations Documentation and identification of original paint layers At first glance the polished skin parts appeared to be unpainted but microscopy and photo-analytical examination of the portraits provided us with new and very interesting information on the colour palette and painting techniques. VIL imaging of IN 826 revealed a great number of small particles shining bright white (Fig. 7). The particles were, in the main, restricted to parts of the face that were covered by incrustations. However, the strong luminescence of Egyptian blue in combination with the transparent properties of the calcareous incrus- A. SKOVMØLLER, R. H. THERKILDSEN tation layer made it possible to identify the well-protected pigment grains beneath it. Furthermore, microscopy revealed traces of red and yellow ochre. On the remaining two portraits, IN 821 and IN 822, similar findings were observed; scattered particles of Egyptian blue in combination with red and yellow grains. In all cases the amount of preserved paint was very small and distinct paint layers rarely occurred. Furthermore, traces of original paint were usually preserved beneath, or integrated in the secondary crusting. Small traces of paint observed on polished areas were applied directly onto the marble ground. In terms of painting techniques, the eyes of the portraits were given special attention. IN 822 exhibited extensive traces of original colour, especially in the left eye. The rim of the eye was outlined in carbon black with small amounts of red ochre, and delicate brushstrokes for the black eyelashes were still visible (Fig. 8). The eyelashes were painted on a well-preserved white ground and XRF-analysis of the white ground revealed a lead content (Pb. 16 ppm). The relatively small quantities of lead could be due to contamination and it is plausible that the white layer was based on calcium carbonate. The drilled pupil and the iris were surrounded by a black line combined with grains of iron red and in the corners of the eyes and on the upper eye lid traces of madder lake were recognized by means of ultraviolet radiation (Fig. 9). Microscopy of the area immediately beneath the left eye of IN 822 revealed a compact white layer in combination with relatively large grains of red ochre (Fig. 10). The characteristic compactness and opacity of the white layer were not observed elsewhere on the skin parts and XRF-analysis revealed an ochre content (Fe, 390 ppm) together with small quantities of lead (Pb. 27 ppm). Again it remains a possibility that the opaque white layer was based on calcium-carbonate. The chromatic scheme observed on IN 826 differed slightly from the identical portraits IN 821 and IN 822. Instead of using an organic lake, a mixture of red ochre (Fe. 502 ppm), cinnabar (Hg. 17 ppm) and lead (Pb. 21 ppm) accentuated the rim of the eyes of IN 826. At first glance all three portraits presented a fairly conventional colour scheme for the hair. Iron red was found together with scattered particles of carbon black, yellow and a few grains of Egyptian blue. However, in the hair of IN 826 red colour dominated whereas IN 821 and IN 822 exhibited a preponderance of yellow colours preserved. It came as a great surprise when microscopic examination of IN 821 revealed gilding on top of an orange layer in the hair (Fig. 11). XRF-analysis of the orange bolus identified a mixture of four different pigments where yellow ochre (Fe. 1858 ppm) formed the basis together with smaller quantities of Egyptian blue (Cu. 37 ppm), cinnabar (Hg. 13 ppm) and lead (Pb. 75 ppm).

The petrographic analysis of the thin-sections of IN 822 and IN 826 showed relatively homogeneous types of stone. In both cases an equidimensional mosaic of calcite grains with straight or gently curved boundaries was observed (Fig. 12, 13). The maximum grain size (MGS) was 0.65 mm for IN 822 and 0.50 mm for IN 826. Neither impurities nor accessory minerals were observed in the thin-sections. The mineralogical composition of IN 821 was the same but the morphology and structure partly different (Fig. 14). A part of the thinsection revealed elongated crystals without clearly defined boundaries that evidenced post-formation stress or deformation. Areas without deformation had a morphology and texture similar to IN 822 and IN 826 but MGS was relatively smaller measuring 0.40 mm. The petrographic analysis suggests that the various stones belong to the same source but it remains unclear at this stage if the deformation observed in IN 821 is a common feature. Results from the stable isotope analysis and EPR as well as MGS and colour value of IN 821, IN 822 and IN 826 were compared with seven marble groups considered as possible provenances (Fig. 15). As expected, the isotopic values for the three samples were not much different from the majority of the seven marble groups and the isotopes were not considered suitable by themselves to identify the provenance reliability. However, the extremely low EPR intensity of the Göktepe 3 was unparalleled by any other group and similar to IN 821, IN 822 and IN 826. A statistical graph using combinations of the experimental variables showed the maximum separation between the marble groups and the location of the three samples in relation to the marble groups was clarified (Fig. 16). The results strongly suggest that the three portraits were carved in marble from the ancient Göktepe quarries in Asia Minor. Why polish and paint? Concluding that the high-gloss polish of the examined portraits in the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek was originally entirely painted leaves us with the question of the reason for polishing the marble surface in the first place.

(Photo: Jørn Bredal-Jørgensen). 896 In order to look deeper into the role of the white marble as a base for fully-painted, three-dimensional portraits, we need to establish the material properties of white marbles. The carving qualities of white marbles are not uniform but are conditioned by the mineralogical and chemical composition and morphology. The marble of IN 821, IN 822 and IN 826 are fine-grained without any discolorations, which would have been an A. SKOVMØLLER, R. H. THERKILDSEN Fig. 14.

Statistical graph with the experimental variables showing the maximum separation between the marble groups and the three heads. essential criterion when planning to carve a high-gloss polished portrait, as the polish enhances the natural colours embedded in the stone. Unfortunately we know nothing of the original context of the portraits, but, as noted earlier, they were bought in Rome and might therefore also originate from Rome or Italy. This means that the Göktepe marble, which was quarried in modern-day Turkey, was present in Italy during the Roman Imperial Period. Either the marble was exported to the workshops in Rome for the carving of high- quality portraits then in demand, or the portraits were carved in the workshops of Asia Minor and then transported to the markets in Rome. Either way the choice of marble presupposed the level of artistic refinements of the portraits, which were in demand within the Roman Empire, giving rise to a systematic trade in white marble sculptures and marble blocks between the eastern and western parts of the Mediterranean. The surface texturing of the three portraits was therefore planned before the marble blocks were chosen: any planning for the additional, fully-covering polychromy would have taken these effects into consideration when mixing and applying the paint. Unfortunately we know very little of factors such as binders, paint layers and concentration of pigments, but if the various 898 surface textures were to have been included in the final appearance, they must have been accounted for in the painting techniques. Through experimental tests performed at the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek it became evident, that the choice of binders would most likely not have included egg yolk, which is in most reconstructive experiments the common choice as binder. But when tested on a high-gloss polished marble slab the egg yolk would not adhere as well to the surface as to a mattepolished surface, and was easily scraped off once dry. It therefore seems plausible that the choice of binder would have been something else or some kind of combination of two or more binders (egg yolk/ white, gums and animal glues). From examination of the results of the scientific investigations it seems as if the paint layers were delicately applied to the skin surface, with a concentration of pigments varying according to the area of the face. The distribution of pigment grains indicates that the paint layers were fairly translucent on areas such as foreheads, cheeks and chins and more compact around the eyes. Combined with the correct choice of binder and the natural luminosity of the polished marble, the applied translucent and opaque paint layers would have created the optical illusion of human skin. And if the painting A. SKOVMØLLER, R. H. THERKILDSEN Fig. 17. Nerva?, Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek IN 3282, 1st half of 2nd century CE. H. 33,0 cm. Tungsten light photography. (Photo: R. Therkildsen).

Therkildsen). techniques had also been selected with the textural differences between hair and skin in mind, then the rough flat-chiselling of the short hair cuts would have been enhanced by the additional paint resembling real human hair. In the case of IN 821 the thinly-applied gold leaf on top of the golden/brown painted strands of hair would have caught and reflected the light like the highlights of real well-groomed hair. The results of a recent examination of a male head from the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek, IN 3282, did not show any signs of original paint on top of the high-gloss carnation surface (Fig. 17). The head bears traces of colour in the hair, but on the skin surface no indications of original colouring were found. The same was the case with a female head also in the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek, IN 799 (Fig. 18). The head has very little original paint in the hair, and none on the skin surface. The small amount of pigments on both portraits could be due to extensive cleaning in modern times, so it is not easy to say whether the skin surfaces were originally painted or not. Further examinations of original paint on high-gloss surfaces could perhaps help to answer this question in the future. Were all polished portraits painted? The findings of original colour on skin areas of the examined portraits in the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek are small and fragmented. The original paint is badly preserved on a glass-like surface like polished marble, and could easily have been removed during post-antique cleaning procedures. However, the fine distribution of Egyptian blue beneath secondary crusting on IN 826 evidences an intentional use of paint on the highly-polished skin parts. The amount and even distribution of the relatively uniform grains on the skin have undoubtedly been part of a mixture of various pigments aimed at obtaining a lifelike colour. But does that mean that all polished portraits were originally painted? Conclusions and further considerations There are still questions which need answering in the research into the original appearance of the painted Roman portraits (and full-figure sculptures for that matter). But as this paper has set forth, the connection between marble type and painting suggests a strong relationship between sculptor and painter. As the different material properties of the various types of white marble could re- 899 THE POLYCHROMY OF ROMAN POLISHED MARBLE PORTRAITS ceive different surface textures, which formed a decisive platform for any subsequent polychrome additions, the choice of marble cannot be considered as fortuitous. The emphasis on the surface manipulation testifies to a sculptural tradition where the final visual experience between portrait and viewer was essential to the overall artistic sequence of sculptural creation. And although we lack information on the painting techniques at this point due to the state of preservation of most Roman sculptures, the acknowledgement of the dominant role of the marble as base material might bring us a few steps closer to unravelling the original appearance of the Roman portraits.
