Title A name given to the resource Charese Brown Subject The topic of the resource Hellenistic and Mauryan Art Contributor An entity responsible for making contributions to the resource Charese Brown Description An account of the resource What do your two objects tell us about everyday life in the period you've selected? I choose two different pieces of art and while they are not exactly from the same time period they are from the past. I also think that while on is a plate and one is jewelry they still have a lot in common with what they are saying about everyday life in those periods. The plate is very emaculate a decorated to perfection which shows that the plate was not just for serving food. It served a high purpose in the house as a decoration. I think it shows that if you have money you buy things that are not needed. No one needs a plate like that unless they have the extra money. I think the jewelry shows the same thing. These prices are so pretty and I think they were worn by people who are higher up in society, but that is just a guess. I truly think the items people had in the past showed how rich you are/how high up in the social system you are. What this shows about everyday life is that people enjoyed luxury if they could afford it.

From these images, it can be seen what life may have been like in ancient Greece and what role African individuals may have had in society. In both pieces of art, the subjects are shown working in rough conditions, indicating that they both may have lived in a lower class in Greek society. Based on the readings from the week, it’s stated that it’s still debated between historians whether racial prejudice towards African people existed at the time, however, these two images still depict the hard lives that many people lived at the time.

(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.

Description An account of the resource The two terracotta statues show a woman and a young girl. They both have very similar appearances. They both have what appears to be modest clothing. Their clothing covers most of their bodies. They also have similar hair styles. Their hair is either short or styled up and away from their faces. It is hard to say if this is how they dressed for their everyday activities or if this is how they dressed for special occasions. These statues also show how similar design styles for statues were at the time. I would like to learn more about terracotta as an art form. For example, was terracotta mostly used for things like statues or for vases. or was it a popular in creating art or was it a less popular than other methods?

The clothes offer the most detail but also have a big discrepancy as people that would have a statue main would be wearing their best while an artists adaptation of a person can be anything he or she wants. The two female seeming to be wearing similar clothing which is interesting as the terracotta statue is described as a child by THE MET so she would be older or wealthy to be wearing the same thing as women statue. The hair styles are similar which tells us that it was a popular way for women to style their hair at the time. Both statues are made out of terracotta, this indicated that it was easy to find/make, a cheap material and popularly used so these statues are likely not special and might be something that more than just the top class could afford. Another thing that can be observed is that the artist tried to hide the hands of the subjects this might indicate the skill and cost of the artist. The final thing that I should be noted is the lack of jewelry on ether subject, other photos and items in the different Hellenistic collections contains many types of jewelry so the subjects might not have been able to afford it or the artist did not want to create it or did not have the still to create it which is interesting considering statues are not the most affordable thing. https://jacknorton.org/1101-online-sp19/files/original/2d4bb0ed6ba55a622958e857c8dba9d7.jpg 39770ca845de7d0593feb43ff5c928e2 https://jacknorton.org/1101-online-sp19/files/original/7c99fc9daaf808b70776bcf5c5d026e3.jpg fc7bc8e49c1bbef25702fb258e515765 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Hellenistic Terracotta Statues Subject The topic of the resource Ancient Greek Art Description An account of the resource When I first saw the two images I thought they looked extremely similar. Both the girl and woman appear to be in the same pose, facing to their right side and in the similar robe style clothing. At first I believe they were both women but reading into their descriptions, one is woman and another a girl. The woman is considered to be found in a private dwelling for religious purposes in a shrine. Often sculptures like this were in the same pose with grace-like faces that would bring liveliness. Then the girl is actually represented as child kind of. By then they were presenting kids as kids and not miniature adults, however you can still see she appears to be dressed like a woman. Both sculptures are from the origins of Athens where they originate from. If someone was to ask me why these matter, I would say because it's an early form of art that led the way for future art. You can see other sculptures with naked bodies which now a days is paintings or photographs of naked bodies. It's matters because it's true pure art.

The cone is thickly granulated and the lower part of the ring is decorated with beads of granulation." These gold earrings help tell us something about poverty in the Hellenistic period. Due to the type and shape of earrings, these were most likely worn by the wealthy exclusively. These earrings could have been used to send with the owner in the after life or simply as a symbol of royalty. Wealth was not shared by all in the Roman and Greek communities, and that is shown by the differences of objects they wore compared to the wealthy. We see that these earrings are Greek, per the article we read, and we see what this symbolized in their culture.
