Detailed explanation-1: -Greek art certainly had a powerful influence on Roman practice; the Roman poet Horace famously said that “Greece, the captive, took her savage victor captive, ‘’ meaning that Rome (though it conquered Greece) adapted much of Greece’s cultural and artistic heritage (as well as importing many of its most famous works).
Detailed explanation-2: -Because of the widespread nature of the Roman Empire, Roman art took on attributes from Greece, Egypt, and the Etruscans. The influence of Greek art, however, is the most noticeable in the Roman style.
Detailed explanation-3: -The art of the ancient Greeks and Romans is called classical art. This name is used also to describe later periods in which artists looked for their inspiration to this ancient style. The Romans learned sculpture and painting largely from the Greeks and helped to transmit Greek art to later ages.
