Reviews of Pompeii

Instead of focusing on the destruction of Pompeii from the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius, Megan took a different route and highlighted the art during this time period.  She explained the four different styles of painting that the Romans were famous for during this time period.  She did a great job explaining what each style represented and how society was influenced by them.

Katie explained how Pompeii had flourished pre-eruption.  She focused on the positive attributes of the town during this time period, as well as the influence its art had during the 18th century.  Her research gives the reader an idea as to how life was for people living in the city, and the different kinds of amenities the city had for vacationers and inhabitants alike.
