Talk:Roman wall painting (200 BC–AD 79)

"All four styles of wall painting were developed prior to the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. Although many examples of Roman wall painting were able to be preserved from the eruption, no new styles of wall painting developed after the incident. "

This seems quite doubtful. The fact that we cannot see any of the further developments because there was no volcanic eruption to preserve them does not imply that the art ceased to develop (which is essentially never the case with art). 176.140.218.138 (talk) 20:50, 9 January 2018 (UTC) ts[reply]
