Editor's Notes

  1. Because both cultures aimed to embody the highest possible standard of quality in all aspects of their society. Most art movements have taken inspiration from the certain artistic elements from the two civilizations. There are different movements that emerged within the different time period in Europe. Each movement has a distinctive characteristic to them highlighting the different trends and changes as they transition from one period to next.
