THINK ABOUT IT:
5.1  Trace the emergence of a distinctive Classical style and approach to art and architecture during the early centuries of Greek civilization and assess the ways Hellenistic sculptors departed from its norms.
5.2  Explore the principal themes and subject matter of ancient Greek art, rooted in the lives—both heroic and ordinary—of the people who lived in this time and place as well as the mythological tales that were significant to them.
5.3  Explore the nature and meaning of the High Classical style in relation to the historical and cultural situation in Greece during the fifth century BCE.
5.4  Understand the differences between and assess the uses of the three orders used in temple architecture.
