Architectural Statuary in Old Greece Nearly all sculptors were paid by the temples to adorn the intricate columns and archways with renderings of the gods until the period came to a close and many Greeks began to think of their religion as superstitious rather than sacred, when it became more typical for sculptors to represent ordinary men and women as well. Wealthy families would occasionally commission a rendering of their ancestors for their large family burial tombs; portraiture also became common and would be appropriated by the Romans upon their acquisition of Greek society. The use of sculpture and other art forms varied through the years of The Greek Classical period, a duration of artistic growth when the arts had more than one objective. It may be the modern quality of Greek sculpture that grabs our awareness these days; it was on a leading-edge practice of the classic world regardless of whether it was made for religious reasons or aesthetic pleasure.
