This is a very nice item for anyone who loves ancient art  and wall paintings with  extremely beautiful pastel colors!         makes perfect gift !     Since the original wall paintings are already in museums and/or ancient sites this is as close as you can get to them! The real replica is much nicer than it looks in pictures. Ancient Fresco Technique: To get a smooth wall surface for the painting to be made on, the rough stone wall was covered with a number of chalk layers (sometimes even 6 or 7) or various content. On the last of these layers, which was very thin, the wall decoration was painted "al fresco", i.e. while the last layer of chalk was still wet. This wall decoration was put on from the top to the bottom of the wall, i.e. the painting was put on in phases and covered the whole of the wall. The decoration was put on, after an incised study draw had been made, by the pictor.   This fresco replica was %100 hand-crafted by picture transferring on plaster slab. See my about me page on how I started to make replicas of ancient wall paintings.
