Website 15.4: The civic projects of the kings of Pergamon
The projects with which the Attalids embellished their city began with the statues of Attalos I, commemorating the defeat of the Gauls. The style of these works, Asian Barogque, differs from the Classical Attic norm, which portrayed the human body in its perfect form and in attitudes of calm self-control.
What do these projects reveal about the way in which the kings of Pergamon regarded themselves? about their resources? about their cultural identity and aspirations?
