Anotace

V originále

The question of copies—both ancient and modern—is central to the understanding of the 4th-century Brescia casket and its historiography. In this two-part presentation, Esther Wipfler, in a second moment, introduces a replica of the casket currently held at the Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg, a piece that raises significant methodological points. Before, Adrien Palladino offers a brief overview of the broader concept of copy in relation to ivory artifacts, with a deliberately provocative focus on two distinct periods in which ivory objects were replicated: the early Middle Ages and the nineteenth century. Because these two types of copies differ markedly in their aims and contexts, this comparative framework can help better understand the replica now housed in the Hermitage.
