Prof. Zackary Crist MD · Accepted Answer

It would be B. because in most Roman art and sculptures and paintings, their art was based off of realism such as the statues you'd see around Rome, they're created after the image of real soldiers with many of the real details of their bodies. A. and C. Would NOT be correct because the Romans never portrayed abstract concepts in their art and the Romans did not see all humans as equals (Seeing as how they thought anyone who wasn't part of their empire were barbarians and savages and filth.) and D. Would not be correct because much of Roman art was not of Landscapes, Usually of Gods, Generals, Emperors, Women etc.

Prof. Zackary Crist MD · Answer

One of the greatest examples would have to be the Greeks Parthenon, and the Romans Pantheon. If you look at the two side-by-side, you can see many similarities in the structures of the two masterpieces. Other than that, te Romans "borrowed" much of the Greek architecture ideas, including symmetry, and balance. Hope this helps!

B. Roman art was focused on realistic details.Explanation: Rome borrowed heavily from Greek culture. Romans often hired Greek artists to create their paintings and sculptures. Attention to detail and realism was important to the Romans. Landscapes, portraits, and wall paintings had many realistic details.
