Functions of egyptian, greek, roman, byzantine, romanesque, gothic?

Egyptian art was always first and foremost functional. No matter how beautifully a statue may have been crafted, its purpose was to serve as a home for a spirit or a god. An amulet would have been designed to be attractive but aesthetic beauty was not the driving force in its creation, protection was.

The chapter highlights the function of Greek art primarily in public spaces, both to visualize the divine and to commemorate humans and also to embellish sacred architecture.

The main difference between Greek and Roman art was the purpose the art was meant to serve; the Greeks had a great appreciation for aesthetic beauty and the philosophical theory behind it. Whereas Roman art was used to illustrate wealth and were more so decorative.

While some styles of art changed during the Late Byzantine period, the function of art was pretty much the same. Icons, portable panels painted with religious figures, returned as a major art form and reached the peak of their importance to Byzantine society in this period.

In the medieval world, art came to play a major role in society. The first consistent style was called Romanesque, which was at its peak between 1050 and 1200. Romanesque churches used art, largely painting and sculpture, to communicate important things.

Gothic sculpture was closely tied to architecture, since it was used primarily to decorate the exteriors of cathedrals and other religious buildings. The earliest Gothic sculptures were stone figures of saints and the Holy Family used to decorate the doorways, or portals, of cathedrals in France and elsewhere.
