Hayo Heinrich, Subtilitas novarum scalpturarum Zum Marmorbauornament
der späten Republik und frühen Kaiserzeit in Pompeji und Campanien.
The study of a selection of buildings in Pompeii (garland grave,
Fortuna Augusta temple and Eumachia building) with exemplary study
of parts of the buildings (acanthus, tendril decorations, Corinthian
and Corinthising capitals) shows how a new form language of ornamental
building developed during the passage from the republic to the empire,
while at the same time marble became the main material for representative
architecture. Central questions are the conditions under which the
works were carried out, which give new criteria for the evaluation
of municipal architecture and also basic criteria for the methodical
study of ornamental buildings.
