The aim is to reconstruct ancient Roman perspective constructions by integrating textual and material evidence.
Utilized digital modeling software Rhino for reconstruction efforts
Analyzed Vitruvius's texts alongside late Republican Roman wall paintings
Explored the interaction between the built environment and the painted surfaces
Proposed a new model that reconciles Vitruvius’s theories with existing wall paintings
Demonstrated how geometric flexibility in 3D modeling allows for accurate representation of perspective
Highlighted the difference between ancient intuitive construction methods and modern digital approaches
