Everything was painted and brightly colored.Yes, some people might find it uglyBut just imagine EVERYTHING this brightly coloredNot just this badass archer from the Temple of AphaiaBut also the Parthenon (its architects were Iktinos, Kallikrates and Phidias)And this statue of Pallas Athena (Athena Lemnia, also by Phidias)This beautiful lady/goddess (Aphrodite?)And of course these cute korai!And many more! (sculptures and temples etc. alike!)I love it tbh -- source link
