Ancient Greek Bronze Sculpture

Bronze statues from antiquity are rare and most Ancient Greek Bronze statues have been found in ship wrecks. One of the most spectacular recent finds are the Riace Bronze Statues in the archaeological museum of Reggio di Calabria. These and many other rare wonderful Ancient Greek Bronze statues can be seen on MuseoPics Site.

Roman Copies of Ancient Greek Statues

We are very fortunate that the Romans were great lovers of Ancient Greek culture, and valued their art enough to copy it. As many original Ancient Greek statues were made in bronze, which over time were melted down to recycle, the only examples we can see today of many lost Greek statues are Roman marble copies of the Greek originals. Many examples of incredibly beautiful Roman statue copies can be seen in MuseoPics Roman Statue collections, which include photos of Roman Aphrodite statues, Roman Emperor statues & Statues of Greco-Roman Gods.
