Welcome to Season 1, Episode 3 of AP Art History: Ancient Mediterranean Artworks 30–47. We're closing out the Ancient Mediterranean with nearly a thousand years of art spanning the Persian Empire, Etruscan Italy, Classical and Hellenistic Greece, and Rome.

These are the civilizations that gave us democracy, the dome, and the idealized human form—they were a little obsessed with power and not afraid to show it. This episode unpacks all 18 works with the historical context, visual analysis, and cultural significance behind each one.

Whether you're an AP student, an art lover, or just curious about where Western art actually comes from, you're in the right place.
