It makes you wonder how much the later artists knew about the earlier artists. I don’t know when museums began collecting ancient art so that more modern artists could see it and make their own variants. It’s clear from bios and the earliest works of an artist that artists spent a great deal of time in museums copying the work of masters as part of their early education.

It would have been pretty hard to “collect” frescoes, you have to admit!
