Greco-Roman Style
The "Greco-Roman Style" refers to the artistic and architectural influences derived from ancient Greece and Rome. This style is characterized by its emphasis on symmetry, proportion, and the use of columns, particularly the Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian orders. It often features sculptures that depict human figures in realistic poses, showcasing idealized beauty and athleticism.
In addition to architecture and sculpture, the Greco-Roman Style also influenced literature, philosophy, and theater. Notable works from this period include the writings of Homer and Virgil, as well as the architectural marvels like the Pantheon and the Parthenon. This style laid the foundation for many aspects of Western culture.
