'Parthenon marbles\r'

'Marbles ar a disposition of classical classic marble sculptures, Inscriptions and architectural members. This collection was origin every(prenominal)y p finesse of the P ar soon tabernacle and opposite makes around It on the Acropolis of Athens, Greece. They are a masterpiece for old-fashioned Greek art and a treasure for the world. Those statues as always been part of the Pantheon complex until the Turkish conquered Greece and gained the power allover its artifacts and properties.It had been relatively booming for Thomas Bruce, the s even soth earl of Elgin, Britain, to buy from the Ottomans embassador a wide range of art pieces for a low price. He show away 56 pieces from the temples frieze, 15 mottoes, and 17 pediment sculptures, positive a caryatid and a column from a nearby temple; and he exported them in his experience courtyard. After few course of study he set up himself forced to shift the collection to the British nation which deposited It In the British Mus eum for safe controling, where It Is still today.But long originally their arrival In England those statues had been battered by wars, fires, earthquakes, whippets, destructions by sawing off chunks of sculptures and other kind-hearted of damage. They convey been scrubbed, cleaned with abrasive substances and eventually reburied over again with stained wax. Since Greece got second its independence, the folk and the politic leaders have been fighting to take the Pantheon Marbles back home as well as Britain has fought to keep them in the British National museum. The case had been brought even to the European UnionsCourt of comelyice but the marbles are still nowadays so far from their native manoeuver. Throughout the report of the world some(prenominal) nations has lost authorized pieces of their art as well as other countries and populations have stolen them. Whether its right to keep those masterpieces or confide them back to their receiveer Is a very controversial wages and the world hasnt found the ‘right answer yet. Everyone unspoiled cares about their own business and they some(prenominal) want to keep others populations piece of art and have back theirs own.First of all I deal we should stop seeing ancient art as a maker of money but as a precious gift to admire. Second of all we should stop seeing those artifacts as a billet of that state instead of the other but as a property of the entire world. Having said that I think that every piece of art could have been more enjoyed and admired in its own primal signal. And I dont mean Just the country where its from, but when possible, even the building where it had been placed.I think it should be an extraordinary feeling to see what and how it should kook like many years before us, in the place where that object was made up for, its sure home. Many years ago I visited the pyramids, I was a kid so I dont call back it very clearly but I do remember how sad I was when I found out that inside they were almost empty. I expected to found a mummy, sarcophagus, sanctioned urns and all the stuff that belonged to that pharaoh and that pyramid. I was so disappointed that someone had Just took them away, to shape them who knows where. Years later I the outperform Egyptian collections I have ever seen.But when I was there I felt so sad, I felt eke a thief because that pieces were non from Turin and neither from Italy and then it didnt look so good as it could look in the pyramids, the real place where they belong. I think art is not Just the piece itself, self-standing, but relate to the environment it was designed for. Only in that way it could be admired for its own beauty and purpose. So If I had the power, Id give every piece of art back to their primal home, and not because of the money or whatever but because there it fuel shine as no where else in the entire world.\r\n'
