- Athenian Agora
600 BCE- 150 CE
Civic, Community, Architecture, Religion, Public,
This work is thematically similar to Forum of Trajan because of its connection to the public. Both of these places served as a public forum where people interacted, and information was spread. They were both community areas where politicians, scholars, and other members of the community would have discussed current events. This piece is formally similar to the ancient city of Thebes. Both the Athenian agora and the ancient city of Thebes are elevated above the rest of the landscape. They also both have a non rectilinear form because of the geography of the area. They also both have roads connecting domestic areas to economic centers.
- Anavysos Kouros
530 BCE
Funerary, Ideal man, nudity, Commemoration, Cross-cultural, War, Afterlife, Violence
This work is thematically similar to Yaxchilan because of the theme of the Ideal man. The Mayan and Greek had different ideas of what an ideal man looked like. The Greek thought of an ideal man as tall, muscular and confident as shown with the Anavysos Kouros. The Mayan thought of the Ideal man as having a flattened skull, being loyal to his wife, and being strong.
This piece is formally similar to marble statue of a kouros. Both the Anavysos Kouros and the Marble statue of a kouros are a sculpture in the round, they both emphasize symmetry, and they both have the subject taking a step forward with the left foot. They are also expressionless and likely would have been painted.
- Peplos Kore from the Acropolis
530 BCE
Ideal woman, Offering, religion
This piece is thematically similar to Virgin (Theotokos) and Child because of their shared theme of religion. Both pieces represent a religious figure that would be in a place of worship. Both were decorated to idolize the figure.
This piece is formally similar to Lady of Auxerre. Both statues are carved from stone. They both have blank expressions that lack naturalistic detail, and they both would have been elaborately painted. Both statues are symetrical except for one arm being bent and the other being straight down.
- Sarcophagus of the Spouses
520 BCE
Male/Female relationships, Funerary, Status
THis piece is thematically similar to Yaxchilan because they both share Male/Female relationships. In the Sarcophagus of the spouses, the piece represents the love of the two and how they will be with each other in death. In Yaxchilan, the Queen is proving her husband's legitimacy. This is not typical of the relationship between men and women in ancient art.
This piece is formally similar to Sarcophagus with couple (Larth Tetnies and Thanchvil Tarnai) c. 350-300 BCE. Both this piece and the Sarcophagus of the spouses depict a man and a woman reclined. They are both have a rectangular form. They are also both carved out of stone. Both these pieces would have been sarcophagus for a wife and husband.
- Audience Hall (apadana) of Darius and Xerxes
- Temple of Minerva (Veii, near Rome, Italy) and sculpture of Apollo, Master sculptor Vulca
Religious complex, appropriation, deities, place of worship
This piece is similar to Great Mosque of Cordoba because of the place of worship theme. Temple of Minerva would have been a place to honor the roman god, Minerva. The Great Mosque of Cordoba originally would have been an Islamic Mosque but got turned into a church.
This piece is formally similar to the temple of Vesta. Both temples have Corinthian columns ordered evenly. They both have rectilinear forms and are bilaterally symmetrical. The two temples are also a pale white and would have been painted.
