Question by Marisol: Is this good? PLEASE read it is due tommorow!?
Roman art has been one of the many wonders and beauties of the world. In Rome, many of their art involves carvings, whether it is in stone, or clay. They also painted, using bright and extravagant colors. Many of what we have learned about the Roman world has been documented in stone. The Romans put whatever they could in stone, from war scenes. Their architecture was mailnly influenced from Greek architecture, from the styles to the looks. Roman architecture flourished, due to its attention to detail, greek influence, and its beauty.

First, Roman art pays a lot of attention to detail. For example, statues were very popular in Ancint Rome, from statues made into fountains in gardens, or statues of the many emporers. These statues included signs of facial hair, if the statue was a man of course, eyes and eye brows, and mouths that were very defined. Many sculptors also sculpted armies, calvary, and war scenes, which included a lot of detail. Many people worked together and put in a lot of work to carving out these fine details, and the work was payed off by its beauty In architecture, Romans used pillars in their architecture, and included a lot of design that was originated from the Greeks.. One of the most famous columns was called Trajan’s column. Emporers ordered that carvings of military victories were to be carved into pillars, or arches. Another type of architecture that had a lot of attention to detail were arches. These usually went between two buildings. One of the most famous arches is called The Arch of Titus. It is obvious that Roman art and architecture had a lot of attention to detail.

Second, Roman art and architecture had a lot of influence from the Greeks. For example, the Romans used a style of column called Corinthian, which was decorated with a leaf pattern. This came from Greece. Romans were extremely fond of bas-reliefs, which were pictures carved in stone, supremely well, and stucco. These were techniques they had learned from the Greeks. In peoples’ rooms, they had huge frescoes, wall paintings with scenes of mythology, some mythology that originated from the Greeks, geometrical designs, and still life. The Romans also had a type of column called the Roman Doric- this was one of the comlumns that derived from the Greeks. The Romans adored greek art, and around the fifth century b.c.e, mostly all of the art had some type of greek influence. Another type of art form that was influenced by the Greeks was sculptures. The Greeks made and worshiped many sculptures, and once the roman saw these, they couldn’t help but to make sculptures too. Many greek sculptors were brought to Rome, so that helped roman art get a greek influence as well. Roman art and architecture was highly influenced by the Greeks.

Lastly, Roman art was popular by simply, its beauty. Roman art was said to be one of the finest art works in the world. During the Augustan age, which was an era of art, alot of artists went into beautifying altars in the Roman churches. When the emporer Nero was in reign, a new art form came out, it was called Style IV. This style of art was painting using brilliant colors and profuse ornamentation. Many other types of art were raved about for their beauty, such as sculptures. These sculptures were very fine sculpted, and were attractions in Ancient Rome. They were sculptures of the Roman gods, or the emporers at that time. On the other hanf, one very popular and beautiful type of architecture was called the arch. The arch was used in many architectural designs, including the aqueducts of Rome, the Baths of Diocletian,Baths of Caracalla, the basilicas and the most famous of all, the Roman Colleseum. Many of these arches were made out of concrete or bricks, due to its durability and the price was cheap. The Pantheon, a temple in Rome dedicated to the Roman Gods, was a prime example of the Roman architecture. In the front it had pilliars supporting it, and was made from concrete. This was a very famous place in Ancient Rome.

In conclusion, Roman art was one of the most beautiful and divine things in ancient Rome, as well as its unique and detailed architecture. Roman art has a lot of attention to detail, for example, the facial expressions, facial hair, and other features on the faces of sculptures were carved neatly. Secondly, Roman was influenced by the greeks. The greeks taught them how to do many styles of art, such as bas-reliefs, which were pictures carved in stone, and the corinthian column, a column that had a floral pattern at the top. And last but not least, Roman art and architecture was very beautiful. From extravegant color choices, to arches in famous landmarks such as the colleseum, Roman art definetley put an impact on the rest of the art we see today, greatly influenced artists, and is appreciated greatly, and everyone should have a chance to see just how talented the romans were, and how beautiful their artwork was.

I love it. The only thing i am sketchy about are the beginning transitions, (first, second, third). Change them to better words, uncommon words. OR you can just take off the words.

Other than that, its wonderful.
