The ancient Venetians left behind extraordinary examples of their incredible skill in decorating metal vessels with the embossing technique: situlae, which today can be admired in the displays of many museums in our region. The students will be introduced to the main technologies and tools for embossing through an explanation supported by a PowerPoint presentation with videos and images. They will then be able to decorate their own copper sheets, imitating the techniques and motifs used in ancient times to create these precious vessels.
