The 4th century, heir to a perfect technique and an exact knowledge of the problems that in the 5th century were still to solve, had the task of introducing subtleties rather than innovations. We have seen how in this century attitudes became more supple, the raising of one hip having been adopted, 2 and how a still too dry and schematic modelling had been softened by a more pictorial and picturesque vision of anatomy and drapery. 3
