Explore the diversity and richness of artisanal trades during the Gallo-Roman period. From stonemasons to potters who exported their wares throughout the Empire, each artisan mastered a craft often passed down through tradition. Funerary stelae, archaeological artifacts, and rare texts reveal the techniques, tools, and work organization—sometimes in small teams, sometimes in full-scale workshops. Straddling the line between manual labor and artistic creation, some—such as mosaic artists and goldsmiths—blur the boundary with art, inviting visitors to decide whether they were first and foremost artisans… or artists.
