Fine Art Great: The Golden Age, the great period of Greek sculpture, is customarily divided into Sth century (450-400 B.C.) and 4th century (400-300 B.C.). Undoubtedly the creations of two of the world's greatest masters, Polyclitus of Argos and Phidias of Athens, determined to a great extent the character of sculpture during the Golden Age. The art of this period is so impressive in its quiet dignity, so reserved in its expression of power, and so measured in its fine art great naturalism, that we have long called its products classic (which means, literally, first-class).

In the production of novelty fabrics a great number of variations and combinations of fibers, yarns, and weaves have been used. A rough surface has usually been the principal aim in weaving decorative textiles. The methods employed to produce these effects are many. Among them are those of alternating coarse and fine art great yarns in either the warp or weft; producing yarns by twisting coarse and fine art great threads or threads of different colors; using loosely spun nubbed (knotted and irregular) threads; weaving heavy ribbed or rep effects by great contrast in the size of warp and weft; and completely changing the character of parallel yarns, by introducing tinsel, fiberglas, or spun rayon. The structure of the fabrics however, remains standard plain, twill, satin, pile, and leno weaves.
