Reflection
In Etruscan art, usually mythological scenes are portrayed, but also scenes from everyday life are. During the Roman Period, artists copied Greek art but also used elements from other cultures, such as, Etruscan, Italic, and Egyptian. During the Renaissance, art mainly focused around religion, and the Ancient Greek and Roman art was brought back.
