Ur. The Ziggurat of Ur-Nammu - 0 views

  •  
    The Ziggurat The term 'ziggurat' derives from the Akkadian verb zaqārū ("to build a raised area"), which pretty much describes the process involved. From a very early stage in their civilization, the Sumerians had taken to placing their important temples on platforms or, in the case of ziggurats, on a stepped series of platforms. There are a variety of reasons why they may have done this.

  •  
    Interesting example of how creativity can affect civilisations and cultures far removed from our own. In a time of American tragedy (the assassination of MLK Jr) Kennedy turns to Greek Tragedy to offer comfort and plead for peace in a time of potential uproar.

Venus of Willendorf: 1. Discovery - 0 views

  •  
    Discusses the discovery of the statue "Venus of Willendorf". Also explains and interprets the characteristics of the statue.
  •  
    Her great age and pronounced female forms quickly established the Venus of Willendorf as an icon of prehistoric art. She was soon included in introductory art history textbooks where she quickly displaced other previously used examples of Paleolithic art. Being both female and nude, she fitted perfectly into the patriarchal construction of the history of art.

The Met Kouros: Naked Nudie | The Art Minute - 0 views

  •  
    Did you ever wonder why male figures in ancient Greek art are almost always nude? You probably didn't. It's something that we all take for granted, but it really is a curious thing. This is a famous sculpture because it is one of the oldest free-standing sculptures of a human from Ancient Greece.
