Hellenistic_art Hellenistic art is the art of the Hellenistic period and dating from 323 BCE to 146 BCE. A number of the best-known works of Greek sculpture belong to this period, Laocoön and his Sons, Venus de Milo, and the Winged Victory of Samothrace.The term Hellenistic is a modern invention; the Hellenistic World not only included a huge area covering the whole of the Aegean, rather than the Classical Greece focused on the Poleis of Athens and Sparta, but also a huge time range.
