My theme evolves throughout periods in many different ways such as politically and religiously. Egyptians were known to make many statues. The renaissance and Japanese would be focused on religious sculptures such as prayer beads. China’s and Medieval’s art would be items placed in a historical place such as China had its sculpture in a coffin chamber and Medieval art had columns in a church. America was more focused on politics, and modern/contemporary art was focused on the interpretations of a child. Africa would have a mask that you could wear while dancing while Islamic art had their attention more towards different designs and patterns.

Column
The Golden Church of La Daurade has only these columns left in it. This specific church was famous because of gold mosaics that would cover the seven sides of the sanctuary. The credits of this art goes to Rogers Fund, Henry Walters, and George Blumenthal. It was made in Toulouse, Southern France in the 5th to 6th century. These columns are made out of marble.
This structure is relevant because it used to be a pair facing outwards from a coffin chamber in China. This was made in the mid-to-late 6th century and earthenware with pigment.
