In the following essay is attempted a brief recording of the historical course of Greek monumental sculpture and its connections with the social or political developments of each era . The Greek sculpture of ancient times in the course of its formation over the centuries was influenced, mainly by civilizations that intersected within the major trade routes. However, this form of art managed in a relatively short period of time to develop a characteristic outline, in the form of monumental sculpture, which served as a basis for the further development of art in general in the so-called Western culture.
