Document Summary

The battle of issos, from the house of the faun, pompeii, 1st century b. c. after an original greek fresco of ca. 3 dimensional form on a 2d surface. Very naturalistic in terms of proportion and details, there is a kind of drapery that exposes the body, the body is anatomically correct and the body is responding to whatever their suppose to be doing. The one on the right is more powerful and has more movement, there capturing a moment in time. Where as 5. 57 seems to stop, the notion of time is not as dramatic with the block in the background. Classical is 5. 57 and hellenistic is 5. 67, hellenistic sculpture has a wide range of subject matter . most is dramatic but not everything. This is all about bodies, in both instances the woman are young with healthy bodies. Aphrodite is a lot more erotic, it suggests shes younger and more revealing.
