Part 1: Art selection

· These are the work of the arts from the ancients to modern art. The reason for the selection of this theme of the art is the association of the ideas behind the sculptures is the religion. Like in the first one is the sculpture of the Ares, who was the God of Greece, he was considered to be the God of war. This sculpture was made by the Scopas who was the ancient Greek sculpture. The second work of art is Moses which was for the Tomb of Pope II, which was made by Michelangelo who made this piece of art in the early 16th century (1506). The third piece of art is also related to the religion, in which the wall depicts the Biblical figures, this was made by Claus Sluter, who was the artist from the Dutch origin.

The most engaging part of these arts is the religious depiction which evolved through the times. From Ares to Jesus in the arts.  

· The common theme is the religious personalities of the times in which they were made.

· It is important to vary the themes through the times, as it describes the artistic preferences of the people, and how this had been addressed by the artists.
