Isis

Orpheus ORPHEUS was the son of Apollo and the Muse Calliope. He was presented by his father with a lyre and taught to play upon it, which he did to such perfection that nothing could withstand the charm of his music. Not only his fellow-mortals, but wild beasts were softened by his music

Exercise # 2 Find information about the mystery cults of the Hellenistic age.

Hellenistic Architecture The Corinthian column Taller, more slender and more ornamented than either the Doric or Ionic columns.

Hellenistic visual arts Dramatic advances in sculpture Continuation of some Hellenic ideals and subjects (e.g., portraits of gods and goddesses). New interests related to extremes of emotion: violence, eroticism. Some occasional interest in realism, in the portrayal of an individual.

Hellenistic sculpture A new interest in capturing action and the excitement of a figure in motion, resulting in works that are less restrained than the Hellenic models. Figures are sometimes twisted or contorted in an effort to communicate the sense of action. Boy Struggling with a Goose (101)

Hellenistic sculpture Dying Gaul: Shows a mortally wounded barbarian warrior. By treating a foreign enemy with such nobility, the anonymous sculptor expresses a deep moral sense that was central to Hellenistic art. Made in Pergamene Style Aphrodite of Melos (c. 160-150 BCE) Shows more of the Classical (Hellenic) influence (idealized face and contrapposto). Relatively new interest in the nude female form. Sensuality

The Dying Gaul

The Dying Gaul

Hellenistic sculpture The Laocoon Group (date unknown) Interest in emotional extremes: terror and despair. A moment of action. The “rhythm” and “action” of the work draws the viewer’s eye to many different parts. Old Market Woman (c. 200 BCE?) An ultra-realistic portrait of a commonly seen character. Still shows the virtuosity of the sculptor. Social commentary or bad joke?

The Laocoon Group
