How do I know that a work of art sculpture is Roman or Grecian?
All the above answers are incorrect. Roman sculpture is not more refined, and there are classical Greek statues with clothes, as there are Roman naked sculptures, which are often copies of Greek ones. It is however easy for experts to discern one from the other, based on the fact that in the roman era sculptures are more expressive and naturalistic (faces have the distinctive features of a specific person, even deformations), whereas classical sculptures are idealistic, they are accurate in their anatomy etc., but they depict perfection, an idealist image of the person depicted. The form of the clothes is also different, they are richer in Roman sculptures. Finally, the Roman carving is less perfect, less "classical", and the style is more "baroque" or has more decorated taste.
