Asset Overview

DStretch Version The arched niche (arcosolium) for 2 burials is located in a hypogeum (a subsurface burial ground of greater size) in the upper level of the Catacombs of San Gennaro (Naples). The niche is currently dated in the 3rd century AD and belongs to the oldest part of that level. The Catacombs itself were used for burials from the 2nd century AD to the Middle Ages. The paintings are in poor conservation status. Most of them are lost. A red-orange frame system divides the surface in geometrical motives, in which different objects are placed. Today, most of them are either lost or not identifiable. Processed from 279 photos and 3 laser scans. The result of a joint project of GDH, the Zamani Project, Università degli Studi di Napoli "L'Orientale", and the Administration of the Catacombe di Napoli. Processed in Reality Capture. The descriptions were provided by Seniorprofessor Dr. Dieter Korol, Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster.. Project # Fresco 16b.
