Roman Art Concept Map: Media, Periods and Key Works

Roman art is the visual culture of ancient Rome, spanning roughly the late Republic to late antiquity. It is usually studied by medium. Sculpture includes portrait busts, relief panels and equestrian statues. Painting covers wall decoration in the Pompeian styles and frescoes at villas. Mosaics decorated floors and walls, and architecture shaped civic spaces through temples, arches and aqueducts.

  • Sculpture: portraiture, historical reliefs and imperial statues
  • Painting: the four Pompeian styles and villa frescoes
  • Mosaics: floor and wall work in tesserae, often with scenes of daily life
  • Architecture: temples, triumphal arches, basilicas and public monuments

Use a map like this to revise artworks by medium and date before an exam. To build one that matches your own syllabus, CogniGuide can create a personalized map from your notes.
