(All the same, wax colours are seen on stonework such as Trajan’s column in Rome, and a wax layer was often applied to painted walls for protection.) Wall paintings were generally produced by brushing the pigment, mixed with a little water and gum, on to wet, ‘fresh’ plaster: the technique is now known by its Italian name, fresco.
(No obstante, pueden verse colores de cera en objetos de piedra como la columna de Trajano en Roma, y a menudo se aplicaba a las paredes una capa de cera para protegerlas). Las pinturas murales se realizaban aplicando el pigmento, mezclado con un poco de agua y goma, sobre el yeso húmedo, “fresco”: la técnica se conoce ahora por su nombre italiano, fresco.
