Greek & Roman
The Roman policy of expansionism beginning in the late 4th century B.C. resulted in domination of the Mediterranean states. Roman legions returned from campaigns in Greece with plunder that included Greek statuary, which impressed the Roman aristocracy and created demand for reproductions. Molds were created from the original Greek sculptures and were used to make plaster casts that were shipped to Greek and Roman sculptors for reproduction in bronze and marble.
