In this issue, we have summarized the work of the seminar Murlo in the spring of 2004, which took place in accordance with the now traditional formula of Antea: the theoretical relationships of scholars held in the morning, followed (in the afternoon) by works of experimental archeology on the topics covered. The theme of color and light is somehow a logical appendix to that of casting techniques and finishing. We include an important appendix for understanding the nature of the ancient statuary, which we have also addressed from a technical point of view, in order to understand the methods and practical inventions for the use of polychromy and light on the works of the plastic in bronze, while traditional historical and art studies have been developed mostly on plaster monochrome copies in plaster-cast museums. Italian text.
English summary: In this issue, we have summarized the work of the seminar Murlo in the spring of 2004, which took place in accordance with the now traditional formula of Antea: the theoretical relationships of scholars held in the morning, followed (in the afternoon) by works of experimental archeology on the topics covered.

Italian description: In questo volume abbiamo raccolto i lavori del seminario di Murlo della primavera del 2004, che si e svolto secondo la ormai tradizionale formula dell’Antea: alle relazioni teoriche degli studiosi tenute in mattinata, seguivano nel pomeriggio i lavori di archeologia sperimentale sugli argomenti trattati. Il tema del colore e della luce rappresenta in qualche modo una logica appendice a quello delle tecniche di fusione e rifinitura Un’ appendice di estrema importanza per la comprensione della piu intima natura della statuaria antica, che abbiamo affrontato anche dal punto di vista tecnico, cercando di capire quali fossero i metodi e le invenzioni pratiche per utilizzare la policromia e la luce sulle opere della plastica in bronzo, mentre i tradizionali studi storico-artistici si sono sviluppati per lo piu sulle copie monocromatiche in gesso delle gipsoteche.
