proportion, and the representation of idealized human forms.

figure pottery, and key examples such as the Panathenaic amphorae.
3. Greek Artistic Techniques and Materials
o Materials: Learn about the materials used in Greek art, including marble, bronze, clay, and ivory, and
how these materials influenced the final works.

painting, firing techniques) to create intricate and detailed artwork.
4. The Influence of Greek Art on Western Culture
o Legacy: Examine the lasting influence of Greek art on later civilizations, including Roman and
Renaissance art, and how its principles of symmetry, balance, and realism continue to shape modern
art.

o Religious Context: Understand how Greek art was deeply intertwined with religious practices,
including the representation of gods, myths, and rituals in temples, sculpture, and pottery.
6. Greek Art and Gender

between idealized female forms in sculpture and the more modest depictions of women in pottery and
other artworks.

especially in sculpture and vase painting, as part of the culture’s emphasis on physical excellence.
7. The Evolution of Greek Art Styles
o Hellenistic Art: Study the transition to Hellenistic art, focusing on the increased emotional expression,
drama, and realism seen in works like the Laocoön Group and the Winged Victory of Samothrace.
