The arrival of Greek settlers in Italy started trade with the Greeks. The Etruscans took up this opportunity, greatly aided by having mines with the metals the Greeks wanted. It is the wealth that this created that promoted the rise of this civilisation. Greek motifs were taken up.

Similarly, the Romans were deeply influenced by Greek culture and art, too. There was not a transition from Greek to Roman art mediated by the Etruscans.
