Opis

Excerpt from A Catalogue of Sculpture, Vol. 3: In the Department of Greek and Roman Antiquities British Museum The bulk of the Marbles described in this, the Third volume of the Catalogue of Sculpture, belong to a period which extends from the end of the 3rd cent. B.C. to the 3rd or 4th cent. A.D. For the most part they are the work of Greek sculptors who with much technical facility carried on in Rome the traditions of the later Attic School, or, as occasion offered, turned their talents to the making of copies or adaptations from archaic Greek statues and bas-reliefs to suit the taste of their Roman patrons. These sculptures are accordingly called "Graeco-Roman." Those of them which are copies or adaptations of archaic works are designated as "archaistic." See Nos. 1560, 1563, 1603, 1609, 1624, 1780 and 2205. Among the Graeco-Roman sculptors were some who created almost a style of their own by infusing a very marked degree of sentiment into types derived mostly from Greek sculptures of the end of the archaic age. Of this school Pasiteles was the head. His date is the 1st cent. B.C. Examples of this style may be seen in Nos. 1666-7. Earlier than this there had arisen in Greece a school of sculpture characterised by accurate knowledge of the human figure and a very bold, forcible style.
