GREEK CULTURE’S 3 BASIC ERAS: Archaic— BCE (Obvious Egyptian influence, stiff, left foot forward and hands at the side) Classicism— BCE (Sculpture was more natural, idealized body portrayed in marble and bronze) Hellenistic— BCE (Emotional over the top artistic statement)

THE “ELGIN” MARBLES the pros and cons By taking them, they were protected and more people have seen them in London than could have seen them in Athens. They are Greek marbles and not Lord Elgin’s and should be returned to Greece as part of their national treasures. An interesting site about the Marbles:
