The course acquaints students with the development of architecture, sculpture and painting in ancient Greece and Rome. The basis is an analysis of architectural orders, acquaintance with the preserved and preserved extant buildings, sculptures and paintings realized from the Hellenic period to the Late antiquity. The aim is to present the essence of ancient art, which formed the basis for the European artistic tradition in the following periods. Students will be acquainted with the form and function of architectural orders, the problems of the emergence of cities, urban planning, the basic types of private and public buildings; they will be presented with sculptures from the Hellenistic style to the sculptures of the Late Antiquity.
