Sculptures
Most all
Greek Sculptures were made of two materials, stone and marble but more marble
than stone. They also made bronze sculpture which represented higher status but
did not last near the amount of time marble or stone did. The Greeks loved to
make sculptures of their gods such as Athena or Poseidon. These sculptures were
very nice and were taken well care of, they were mainly found in temples and in
other important buildings.
Pottery
Even
though Greek Potters were not really famous like other artists, they were
really dedicated to their work.
c. 1000 BCE
c. 900 BCE
c. 800 BCE
Their
Pots were used for multiple purposes, but no matter what the case was, you
could see the time in effort they put on them.
The
Renaissance and Greek Art
Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello, and Michelangelo were
Italians artists. They were often referred to as the Masters of the
Renaissance. People also call them some of the greatest artists of all time.
Their art was highly influenced by Greece and how they did their art. They were
influenced by the Greeks because they wanted to bring back the great art from
Greece. One of the most famous artworks which was made by Leonardo Da Vinci, is
known commonly as the Mona Lisa.
