Blog #2 The Classical Period



 The classical period is more on gods and goddesses. This is the art I like, because of knowing about  all the gods and their power, one of the gods I like is Poseidon god of the seas. And also Zeus. :)

In the early classical, or transitional period. A humanism began to find its aesthetic expression in terms of a perfect balance between verisimilitude and abstraction of form. The largest surviving group of sculpture is from the temple of  Zeus at Olympia. Although certain conventions in rendering hair and draperies persist from the archaic period, the magnificent marble figures from the pediments reveal a new kind of insight into the structure of the human figure.
