There's something classical in the simplicity of bare marble, isn't there? Makes us think ancient civilizations were very stately and sober. Interesting to think about the differences!
Definitely. It just seems more civilised and somehow tasteful in a romantic way. Fact is they probably had just as bad taste as we do they just expressed it in slightly different ways.
