Hellenistic Vs Classical Art Research Paper

2. Hellenistic and classical art, are two arts that are known for showing human anatomy .In Hellenistic art, you can see that the art forms have gone above and beyond the understanding of human anatomy and they payed attention to how the body moved and how it would look when it had taken action. Hellenistic art looked at the way the muscles bulged or the torsos twisted. However in classical art, you can’t see the emotions or the actions of the body, classical art had begun a long time before hellenistic art and Hellenistic art hadn’t even begun until Alexander the Great died. Although Classical Art had been around years before Hellenistic art, Hellenistic art used lots of concepts and had gotten a lot of their ideas from Classical Art
such as its shadows and emotions.
