1. Phidias (c. 480 - c. 430 BC)

Bird in Space
An Athenian considered the greatest of all Classical sculptors. He created the chryselephantine (gold and ivory) Statue of Zeus at Olympia (one of the Wonders of the Ancient World, now lost) and the statue of Athena in the Parthenon (now lost). He was supported by money from the Delian League (that is, the Athenian Empire) run by his friend Pericles; he was later ruined by charges of corruption generally considered to be part of a political campaign against Pericles.
A Roman who — with the rarely asked-about Francesco Borromini — defined the Baroque movement in sculpture. Bernini is principally known for his freestanding works, including David and The Ecstasy of St. Theresa. Bernini's David differs from that of Michelangelo in that the hero is shown 'in motion,' having twisted his body to sling the rock. Bernini is also known for his massive fountains in Rome, including the Triton and the Fountain of the Four Rivers.
