Ancient Rome ''A Roman Feast'' Fine Art

A Roman Feast is a painting created by Roberto Bompiani during the late 19th century. Bompiani creates a realistic scene of a man of supposed royalty enjoying delicacies such as fruit, wine, and bread. Situated around the man in white are his close followers and a woman.

ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Except for the portly man at the table's center, the figures are quintessential "Marble School" creatures, physically perfect, with soft, smooth skin as polished as the marble that surrounds them. Roberto Bompiani delighted in depicting varied textures and patterns, from the leopard-skin rug to the marble floor and table and a shimmering satin dress.

Bompiani did extensive research to create the effect of authenticity, though he often mixed styles and periods in a single canvas. He based the frescoes and inlaid marble floor on Roman models, while the stone and bronze tables, lamps, and vessels depend variously on Greek, Roman, and Etruscan sources.

Bompiani's imaginary genre scenes of Roman life, told with a combination of photographic realism, idealization, and archaeological accuracy, became popular in the late 1800s.

This art is a fine art quality. The Ibis’s giclée process uses archival pigment inks on 100% cotton rag paper to achieve crisp detail and rich, lasting color. Unlike posters, they will not yellow with time but will maintain their original quality for as long as you own them. The quality of these prints is top-notch, and would look amazing on any wall!
