The primary objective of Greek art was to explore the order of nature and to convey philosophical thought, while Roman art was used primarily as a medium to project the authority and importance of the current ruler and the greatness of his empire.
This change in the meaning of art from Greek to Roman times shows the gradual decline in the importance of intellectualism in ancient western culture.

Roman art is very similar to Greek art, mainly because the Romans thought Greek art was so beautiful. They would either hire or enslave Greek artisans and have them paint or sculpt in the Greek style.
