Hellenistic Period


The Hellenistic period have developed much from the Archaic and Classical periods as you can see with all the detailing and exaggeration. If you look close up in the mans face you can see the precise detailing with his facial hair. You can see the muscles look more realistic and human-like compared to the sculptures in the Archaic period. If you look closely you can see how the feet are as if they are real! They have stretched their skills from the earlier time periods. The faces look more exact and realist with some expressions as well. The impressing thing is that it is done in marble!
