<u> During the Archaic period, two major types of art that were produced were sculptures and paintings on vases.</u>

<u>The sculptures </u>were starting to be more proportional and relaxed, although still quite geometric. The figures of men and women started expressing some emotion, such as the so-called Archaic smile.
<u>Paintings on the vases</u> stopped being purely geometrical and started depicting figures and scenes. These scenes were usually images from mythology or the everyday life of people.
