Greek sculpture influenced the Romans from the 2nd century BC. Prominent 1st century BC and 1st century AD Romans such as Cicero and Pliny the Elder greatly admired the innovative work of classical Greek sculpture artists, such as Polykleitos. However, the Romans did not produce much sculpture based on the classical Greek model. Their sculpture was predominantly portraiture (see below) until , from the 1st century AD, the Romans adopted Hellenistic sculpture, which took sculpture to a different level, as a model for their own sculpture. Prior to the influence of Greek sculpture, Roman sculpture was portraiture sculpture (busts). Their portraiture sculpture is regarded as the best sculpture of this kind ever produced.
Figures are carved in high relief with deep undercutting.

The main Greek influence has come through the way it influenced Roman architecture. Much of Renaissance architecture was influenced by Roman architecture. Brunelleschi, the great early Renaissance architect went to Rome to study Roman buildings. A big influence was the discovery of De Architecta, a text book on (Roman) architecture by Vitruvius, a Roman architect and engineer. Palladium was the father of the Palladian style which became very popular in Britain, which was based on the roman mansion. The neo-classical style was based on gthe Graeco-roman style. The dome was a great Roman achievement The Pantheon and the Hagia Sophia have been regarded as yardsticks for later domes.
