A thousand years after the fall of the empire, Roman art was rediscovered during the period called the Renaissance. Great artists, such as Michelangelo, revived the Greco-Roman style in their paintings and sculptures.
A famous example is the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel in Rome. The ceiling shows scenes from the Bible painted by Michelangelo in the 1500s.
Roman art has continued to influence painters and sculptors. Roman styles were especially popular during the early days of the United States.
Romans also developed the arts of gem cutting and metalworking. One popular art form was the cameo. A cameo is a raised, carved portrait of a person's head or a carved scene.
The Romans wore cameos as jewelry and used them to decorate vases and other objects. You can find examples of all these art forms today.
