Etruscan Art9th-2nd centuries BC
* Most of information about the Etruscans comes from their tombs
* They decorated these tombs with frescoes depicting everyday life, mythology and funerals
* The colors are bright and the style is lively * As their civilization declined, Rome expanded. This is
reflected in later art which becomes more somber.
