From the tomb of the diver:
The significance of this particular tomb is that it contains the only example of Greek wall painting from the Orientalizing, Archaic, or Classical period to survive in entirety. The tomb was created some time around 470 B.C.E. in the Greek city of Poseidonia (later know as Paestum in Roman times). The tomb itself is made of five limestone blocks, each from a local source. The paintings were done in the fresco style. Plaster was applied to the limestone slabs, after which a stylus was used to incise the design. After the design was incised with a line a thin red line was added to render the image. The colors used were black, red (of varying degrees of darkness), blue, green, and white. Black outline was used substantially, for both silhouetting the figures and later for adding anatomical detail to the figures. The black outlining was not done initially, as was common in other painting styles, the “internal anatomy and their outlining were added after the flesh tone had been painted on the plaster” (Holloway)
