Greek Sculpture presents a chronological overview of the plastic
and glyptic art forms in the ancient Greek world from the emergence
of life-sized marble statuary at the end of the seventh century BC
to the appropriation of Greek sculptural traditions by Rome in the
first two centuries AD. * Compares the evolution of Greek sculpture
over the centuries to works of contemporaneous Mediterranean
civilizations * Emphasizes looking closely at the stylistic
features of Greek sculpture, illustrating these observations where
possible with original works rather than copies * Places the
remarkable progress of stylistic changes that took place in Greek
sculpture within a broader social and historical context *
Facilitates an understanding of why Greek monuments look the way
they do and what ideas they were capable of expressing * Focuses on
the most recent interpretations of Greek sculptural works while
considering the fragile and fragmentary evidence uncovered
