Quote:I recall that Authari told me it was based on the Via Maria catacomb:

Could the depiction show embossed decoration? When I draw/paint Roman helmets, I obviously paint the eyebrows to be visible. Could this not just be the artist showing the embossing?

It certainly could, BUT, no attempt is made to define them as outlines when he had a thin enough brush to do so (eyebrows, eyes, cheekguards, etc).
