Fantastic job. I agree that kouros was a young man who died in the battle and that his statue stands over the grave of Kroisos. Moreover, it is true that the statue of Anvysos kouros is proportionated, and detailed unlike other statues that resemble him. It is observed that you can see clearly the details of his cheeks, hands, arms, stomach, kneecaps and feet. Surprisingly, his long hair falls over his back, and his V shaped ridges have become fleshy and rounder to create a life like human form.

Amazing job, Venus de Milo is one of the most famous ancient Greek art in the world. I tend to disagree that the statue does not pursue a sense of slenderness and exquisiteness that signifies adoption of a simple artistic treatment method and is presumed to depict the beauty of the human body. There is an ideal beauty of classicism, and full of infinite poetry in this art. Generally, there is a unique smile and calmness giving people the wise and elegant feeling.
