They both show how they were dressed with robe like clothing and very loose clothing. From the readings we read this week it talked about how the sculptures were all dressed with loose clothing which proves my point in the pictures. This shows us how the people of this period had a strict dressing option for clothes and how they always choose to wear loose clothing. When you also look closely at the two objects you can see a lot of emotion which also tells us how the creators were so precise in making these sculptures. The big picture is that these objects were two big pieces in history because they show and tell us how they were made, we can learn so much from just looking at them. My learning objective is to understand a little more about how they made them so precisely.

Title A name given to the resource Molly Rapp Subject The topic of the resource Ancient Hellenistic Period Art Description An account of the resource Although Mauryan Period art features women, Hellenistic art features women in a more everyday sense though their depiction of clothing, physical appearance, and position of body in their sculptures. Both pieces I chose to analyze were sculptures made of Terracotta and featured two standing women. One being a seemingly younger girl and one being a woman. By comparing and contrasting the physical characteristics of these two females, I hope to draw conclusions about everyday life of a woman in the Hellenistic Period. Both females are wrapped in “himation (cloaks)” and they are both wrapped tightly around their body. This is believed to be used for a fashion statement and it resembles everyday clothing of women and girls. Unlike most Mauryan pieces, which feature deities, you see both women standing naturally in these sculptures. The young girl is a little hunched in a child-like way and the light smile hints at a child nature. According to Metropolitan Museum of Art, children were no longer represented as miniature adults but rather were given childlike proportions and features in the Hellenistic time period. This shows us a more “real” sense of humanity during that time period. Even in the sculpture of the woman, we see drapes of cloth as clothing rather than them being naked. This shows a more everyday approach to artwork. The Metropolitan Museum also states that some Hellenistic art pieces featured “women...are seated or playing games”. This certainly speaks towards the portrayal of everyday life. I wish to further analyze the “why” to certain clothing pieces, accessories, and the functions of both of those used in tandem. I also wish to relearn the three major parts of a thesis statement. Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

This woman is dressed in nice and formal clothing and seems to be posing. This makes her seem empowered and comments on the rights that women gained during the Hellenistic period. There status was changing as public realms and societal norms fluctuate. This woman doesn’t seem to be royalty and she looks very well off with nice clothing and a cloak. This image doesn’t convey a sense of poverty in my eyes. If this woman is in the middle class that suggests that the majority of people in these civilizations had enough money to put food on the table and clothing on their back.

Title A name given to the resource Terracotta statuette of an old nurse holding a child Subject The topic of the resource Hellenistic sculpture Description An account of the resource "Figurines of seated and standing nurses with babies became popular in the fourth century B.C. This specific type is a later one and reflects the interest in realism in the Early Hellenistic period. Its invention was probably due to the influence of the so-called New Comedy that began in Athens at this time and in which the child-holding nurse was a common character." "Medium: Terracotta Dimensions: H. 5 3/8 in. (13.7 cm) Classification: Terracottas" This sculpture displays a old nurse holding a small baby. When it states, "the child-holding nurse was a common character", I think of how the nurse could have been a maid and took care of the baby. This makes me think of the aspect of slavery and how little they got paid and how most lived in poverty. Although the lady is a nurse, she is old as it states. The fact that she is old and still working may be because she needs money to keep living.

It should be therefore be asserted that individual Africans were held at different social classes in the ancient Greek civilization.

Additionally, the description states that the garment “is characteristic of artisans”, demonstrating that the boy was not in the lowest class. On the other hand, the Terracotta perfume jug shows a boy of similar age being in total submission. He is crouched about and rather skinny. Additionally, the nature of being on a perfume bottle was possibly a way that his masters could have mocked him.

Title A name given to the resource Terracotta vase in the form of a sleeping African (known as Ethiopian) boy Subject The topic of the resource Hellenistic terracotta vase Description An account of the resource "Medium: Terracotta Dimensions: H. 8 3/16 in. (20.8 cm) Classification: Vases" These sculptures of Ethiopians tell us a lot about how they were viewed in Greek culture during the 3rd-2nd century B.C. The Terracotta vase in the form of a sleeping African (known as Ethiopian) boy, is a sculpture of a young boy that is naked and weary. He seems poor as he has no clothing or shoes to wear. He is sleeping and looks extremely exhausted, indicating a long day of work, possibly as a slave. The title of the sculpture indicates that the subject is a young Ethiopian boy. This comments on the dehumanizing way Greek’s saw Ethiopians. They seemed to be categorized as servants and workers comparable to a brute. The other sculpture I choose is called Bronze statuette of an African (known as Ethiopian) youth. The subject’s clothing covers almost nothing and his prominent muscles suggest years of manual labor. His eyes seem to be hollowed out, which is another detail that makes him look like more of an animal or monster rather than a human. These pieces comment on the racial prejudice Greeks had against Africans at this time even though they had little contact with them. I wish to review how to effectively analyze artwork.

Title A name given to the resource Terracotta vase in the form of a sleeping African (known as Ethiopian) boy Subject The topic of the resource Africans in Ancient Greek Art Description An account of the resource I chose these two images because they reflect on how the Africans were simplified and objectified. The first sculpture is from the Iron age, and shows how the Greek liked to generalize or oversimplify the “Ethiopians.” The face is exaggerated, with an exceedingly large nose/nostrils and wide, pursed lips. The hair doesn’t even look like hair, they just poked holes in the head and called it a day. Comparing the art to today’s times, I think that many people would say that this contributes to the animalization or historically racist caricatures of black people today. Not only that, but this is a pendant, people willingly wore this around their neck like it was jewelry. I think that also says something about the objectification of black people at the time. While Africans were mainly used for entertainment purposes, my second image (from the Hellenistic period) shows that they had also been enslaved by the Greek. The little boy is naked, and the terracotta vase is meant for people to pour their water into. This is a bit contradictory considering that slaves were deprived of many resources, yet the artist wanted people to give him water. Comparing both art pieces, I find it interesting that when depicting Africans, the Greek often turned the art into an object (whether with utility or not). When looking at the Greek depicting themselves, they are often these huge, marble structures or statues with intricate detail, and rarely imposed as an object. They also happened to be clothed, but when they aren’t its regarded as symbolism for purity and is almost luxurious. Further Questions: I am wondering why the Metropolitan only revealed one image that suggested slavery was prevalent in Greece. Keeping in mind that many affluent people collected Greek art, I wonder if they were as enthusiastic to purchase Greek depictions of Africans art. I also wonder if we have perspectives on any of the people who were enslaved or the artist’s that sculpted them. I think that it would make an exceptional conversation to speak about slavery in regards to divinity, and the justifications people had.

Title A name given to the resource Terracotta vase in the form of a sleeping African (known as Ethiopian) boy Subject The topic of the resource Africans in Ancient Greek Art Description An account of the resource The sleeping boy's nakedness and exhausted state suggest that he is a slave or servant. Vases of this shape probably held perfumed oils. The two objects I choose were an object of a bronze statue of an African boy and a Terracotta vase in the form of a sleeping African boy. Both of these objects shows us about everyday life in that period that Greeks looked down on Africans. In a way they used their sculptures to over exaggerate African features. The first object which is a bronze statue of an African boy who barely has any clothes on maybe indicating he’s a slave. The boy seems to be dirty and not have a lot of clothes, probably showing they were looked down on. The second sculpture is a terracotta vase of a little boy who also seems tired and poor. The fact that they made the vase out of a little African boy shows that they were not valued or respected. Showing that Greeks didn’t know much about them or had anyone to ask what their culture or values were. Overall both of these sculptures show how Greeks during the Hellenistic looked down or had no respect for Africans during that era.

Title A name given to the resource Terracotta vase in the form of a sleeping African (known as Ethiopian) boy and Bronze statuette of an African (known as Ethiopian) youth Subject The topic of the resource Africans in Greek Art Description An account of the resource I chose these two images to highlight how different Greek art was when showcasing which person. The first image, I chose the “Ethiopian” boy. If you look at the statue, his face seems to be soulless, which could indicate that the Greeks didn’t see them as human, that they were just soulless creatures that did work for them. If you can place emotion on him, he seems distressed. My question would be, why would Greeks choose to showcase a little boy in distress? Perhaps because that’s the only experience that they had with them, because they weren’t treated well. He also, has very little clothes. He seems to not be covered at all, just a little tie around his waist that doesn’t appear to even cover him completely. My second image is the sleeping boy. This one, also shows a child who doesn’t seem to be sleeping well. He is naked and has a spout neck emerging from his back, which is meant to put liquid in. This would give the idea that he is meant to hold the Greek’s items, like liquid. They have been reduced to simple objects like a pot, they are not people.
