Blog #3 -- CHRISTIAN ART

I have learned a lot from this period. I have also seen the different architectural designs of many famous churches around the globe. As the time passes by, the design and structure of the churches also evolve to a much better one. 

This period showed a lot of Christianity and how Christians adopt the culture when Constantine banned Christianity. They have showed strong faith in God by building underground graves and held underground mass. They have done everything they could to save Christianity and when Constantine finally converted as a Christian, they built extravagant churches that would mean they want the whole world to know that they were still existing and they built it to spread the Christianity to the whole world.

The structures of the churches also shows their faith. They have painted biblical people on the walls and ceilings to make the people see them.

Blog #2-- Every sculpture has a story

“The conquered became the conquerors, and the conquerors became the conquered.”

when the Romans conquered Greeks, Greeks conquered Romans by influencing their culture

.they both have the same set of gods and godesses. It also shows in their art because they almost

have the same kind of ways on how to represent their art.

The story behind every sculpture is a mystery but some studies says that some of the sculptures 

really depict the true image of the gods. 

The kind of art they used in this period is idealism. Because they create a human-like structures 

make it as realistic as possible.

This era made me think that the gods and godesses where very beautiful, like perfect. After 

knowing the story,  I really wanna see the images of their gods and wondering how did they ever 

made such beautiful sculptures without even a pattern to get it from? And why is that the gods and 

godesses made us all believe that they are the most beautiful creations in the world? like they were 

the standard of being the perfect faces and body.

It's pretty amazing that even in the early times, people were already aware of having a "god" 

and worship them as if they were really the reason behind their success in life.

For me, Greek and Roman art is just the same. They both have a very beautiful bond that reflected through their artworks and the culture itself'.
