More model informationTo make this digital model, we scanned a modern replica of an ancient Roman artifact. For scanning purposes, we sprayed the replica with an aerosol powder to make it opaque. The final rendering was then colored cobalt blue to make it distinct from the ancient artifact, which is a yellowish green. The glass jar depicts four labeled gladiators and an animal hunt and has a rare artist’s signature [M(arcus) Licinius Diceus F(ecit)].
The modern glass replica was made by Mark Taylor and David Hill: http://www.theglassmakers.co.uk/051a.htm
