Group of answer choices

You didn't give any options, but if you're asking about art and the legacy left by the Romans, we can say that the Romans were strongly influenced by the Greek civilization, and this influence is reflected in the art. Among the main artistic characteristics of the Greeks, who reached the Romans, was the search for the reproduction of the human body and the elements of nature in a real way. The realism in sculptures and paintings, although it was left out in the Middle Ages, was recovered in the Renaissance and preserved by several currents and later artistic schools, reaching to the present day.

Explanation:

Roman art was highlighted for its realism and for the combination of beauty, functionality, and usefulness of its works. After the great Greek influence, the Romans added administrative talent and efficiency, leaving the Greek style more intellectual and idealized for a secular and functional style.
