Kaitlyn,
I agree the Hellenistic period was immensely more detailed of that of the human body than it was in the classical period. The emotion was captured so well its almost like a picture perfect moment except with sculptures. The Laocoon’s details to the face made it to were it was as if you can really understand and see what they could have been going through at the time. It makes it easier to relate the humanistic appeal to the piece when there is so much emotion being depicted withing the art. Amazing job!
