This document discusses Greek art across three periods - Archaic, Classical, and Hellenistic - from the 7th to 2nd centuries BC. It focuses on architecture, sculpture, and pottery. Greek art emphasized ideal proportions of the human body, copying from nature, and strict rules of proportion, beauty, and harmony. Architecture featured temples constructed in three orders - Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian. Sculpture evolved from rigid Archaic styles to more realistic Classical works to expressive Hellenistic sculptures. Pottery provides insights into Greek culture and evolved through Proto-Geometric, Geometric, Black-Figure, and Red-Figure styles.
