Good evening, I’m Aria. Researchers have uncovered that the famous plain white Parthenon sculptures were actually vibrantly painted back in ancient Greece. Using fancy imaging techniques they found traces of blue, purple and other hues. It turns out the Greeks really liked coloring their art. Who knew? The British Museum has housed the sculptures for years, but now we know they used to have more pizzazz. Researchers say this changes how we see ancient Greek artistry. The gods probably loved all the flashy colors. Take that, art history! Back to you, some random dude.
