Curator's comments:

Image created in Midjourney with this text - to -image prompt created by Chat GPT-4 "Create an image set in the British Museum, where a diverse group of people is closely gathered together, each deeply focused on using their mobile phones to 3D scan various ethnographic objects. These individuals, representing a range of descents including Caucasian, Hispanic, Black, and South Asian, and of different genders, are intently scanning objects with a history of being looted from indigenous people during the era of Enlightenment and colonialism. They seem completely absorbed in their task, oblivious to the other museum visitors around them. The museum environment is rich with historical artefacts and exhibits, providing a striking contrast to the modern technology used by the visitors. The lighting captures the ambiance of a museum, with focused illumination on the artefacts, creating a spotlight effect, while the surrounding area remains dimly lit. The composition should highlight the juxtaposition between the deep cultural history embedded in the museum's artefacts and the contemporary scene of visitors engrossed in their digital devices. The image should be rendered in high photographic fidelity, emphasising the sharp details of both the historical artefacts and the modern scanning activity"

Description

Photogrammetric 3D scan of Marble head from a statue, probably of Julius Caesar. 50 BCE

Curator's comments:

The scan was completed as part of research into the ways 3D images are often fractured during their reconstruction in digital forms, particularly considering mobile devices and museums as an assemblage of disparate parts. The British Museum catalogue reads:  "Marble basin consisting of a fluted bowl supported on two griffin's legs and central column springing from a floral ball. Below is an oval platform decorated with scale pattern supported by six blocks carved with grotesque heads. The blocks rest on a rectangular plinth decorated with scroll ornament.The bowl is of dubious antiquity. The legs are antique table or chair supports. The central floral column is certainly ancient (the support under it is new). The oval table is not genuine; the supporting heads are partly ancient having originally served as acroteria on the lid of a sarcophagus but the plinths with basket decoration are 18th century. The rectangular plinth slab has ornament carved in the early 3rd century AD but it has been altered to adapt it to its present use." 

The scan was created using the mobile app Scaniverse.
