This area was protected by a raking cornice and a back wall called the tympanon. On the floor of this area, attached with dowels, was placed sculpture. These sculptural groups usually depicted stories from the myths, were painted in rich vivid colors, and often had gilded armour and weapons. Often the sculptural groups illustrated more than one part of a myth, or more than one myth. They must have been a magnificent sight for the Greeks, who knew well the myths depicted. Use bulletin board paper to make your own large paper pediments. This project would work well with a group of from three to five students. The children should be shown pictures of pedimental sculpture. Two good books to use with children are Greek Sculpture, The Archaic Period by John Boardman and A Handbook of Greek Art by Gisela M. A. Richter. The children should first work together to produce a rough draft of their idea. To make the pediment, measure off six feet of white bulletin board paper. Fold the paper in half. Mark the paper three quarters of the way up on the fold line. Draw a line from the bottom corner to this mark. Cut out the triangle shape, open flat and begin to work. To help strengthen the edges, two inch side strips of paper should be glued around them. The students can draw or paint directly on the pediment shape. Another idea would be to make the figures from paper, and paste them down. Encourage the artists to work large and fit their figure to the shape of the triangle. Display the pediments over doors or bulletin boards if the ceiling height will permit. Janeene Blank Birmingham, Michigan .
