Byzantine art evolved from early Christan art, particularly that of the eastern part of the Roman Empire which, in turn, was influenced by Greek and Roman art.
The ancestors of the Romans were the Latins, Etruscans, and Greeks. The Latins contributed to the language and foundation of Rome, the Etruscans influenced Roman art and architecture, and the Greeks influenced Roman culture, religion, and philosophy. These influences helped shape the development of Roman civilization into a powerful and influential empire.
Graeco-Roman art was the art of the classical period of European antiquity. It influenced the painting, sculpture and architecture of Renaissance art (renaissance means rebirth of interest in the classics) of the 15th and 16th centuries, the sculpture of the baroque period (17th century) and the sculpture and architecture of the neoclassicism of the 18th century. The latter remained influential in the 19th and 20th centuries. Scenes from classical mythology retained a presence in painting until the beginning of the 20th century. Palladio was a 16th century Italian architect who based his design of mansions for the rich on Vitruvius' textbook on Roman architecture. He was influential in Europe until the 19th century.
When national monuments were being created, the popular and strong Neo-Classical style was used in their creation (columns and whatnot).
