Abstract
The article focuses on the ancient Roman practice of contracting for house painting, emphasizing the importance of agreements between clients and painters to specify details such as materials, colors, and painting techniques. Topics include the role of contracts in safeguarding against disputes, the influence of expensive pigments on the cost of painting projects, and ongoing archaeological efforts to analyze pigments from a recently discovered Roman pigment shop.
