• Sunken reliefs on columns:
In the hypostyle hall at Karnak, the columns are indispensable structurally, unlike the rock-cut columns of the tombs at Beni Hasan and Abu Simbel. But their function as vertical supports is almost hidden by horizontal bands of painted sunken relief sculpture.
•Architecture after Alexander:
Once formulated, Egyptian traditions tended to have very long lives, in architecture as in other arts. The pylon temple of Horus at Edfu, built during the third, second, and first centuries BCE, after Alexander the Great's conquest of Egypt, still follows the basic scheme architects worked out more than a thousand years before.

Image gallery Temple of Horus, Edfu, Egypt, ca 237-47 bc
ANCIENT EGYPT
The façade of this temple depicts Horus and Hathor witnessing an oversized King Ptolemy XIII striking down undesired enemies.
The architecture of this temple is still rooted in the basic scheme that architects had worked out more than a thousand years before.
This demonstrates the traditional nature of Egyptian art and architecture.
This type of temple with a simple massive gateway or pylon with sloping walls is known as a pylon temple

Image gallery Temple of Amen-Re, Karnak, Egypt, Dynasty XIXCa 1290-1224 bc
ANCIENT EGYPT
This temple is mainly the product of the Eithteenth Dynasty pharaohs, but some of the Nineteenth Dynasty pharaohs contributed to it as well.
Contributers include: Thutmose I and II, Hatshepsut, and Ramses II.
This temple is a great example of the hypostyle hall. ( One roof supported by many columns)
Look on page 65 of the text for further illustrations of this architectural feature.The central section of the roof is raised. This architectural feature is called a clerestory. The function of this was to allow light to filter into the interior.
The columns were decorated with a series of sunken relief sculpture.

Sculpture and Painting
• Sculpture and Painting
Senmut and Nefrua:
Extremely popular during the Middle and New Kingdoms were block statues. In these works the idea that the ka could find an eternal home in the cubic stone image of the deceased was expressed in an even more radical simplification of form than was common in Old Kingdom statuary.

Painting and the Tomb of Nebamun
• Examine materials and methods of painting in the New Kingdom. Compare the style to the earlier Egyptian conventions.

Image gallery Fowling scene, from the tomb of Nebamun, Thebes, Egypt, Dynasty XVIII, ca 1400-1350 bc
ANCIENT EGYPT
Nebamun’s official title in Egypt was “scribe and counter of grain”
Here he is shown standing in his boat, hunting birds in a papyrus swamp.
Notice the hierarchy of scale and how the artist emphasized the important character.
This was created in the tomb to ensure the recreational enjoyment in the afterlife.
Notice the contrast between this work and that of the relief sculpture in the tomb of Ti. ( how are their poses different, and how does it speak to their importance)
The technique used in the creation of this painting is known as Fresco Secco. The artists would let the plaster dry prior to painting on it. This contrasts the true fresco technique on wet plaster.

New Kingdom 1550-1075 BCE
• Characterized by a more militaristic and imperialistic nature– incorporated chariot, bronze working,
horses– development of a professional army
• became a slave based economy fueled by war and expansion

Threats to Tradition
• Amenhotep IV (c. 1362-1347 B.C.) introduced the worship of Aton, god of the sun disk, as the chief god and pursued his worship with enthusiasm.
• Changed name to Akhenaten (“It is well with Aton”)
• He closed the temples of other gods and especially endeavored to lessen the power of Amon-Re and his priesthood at Thebes.

Image gallery Akhenaton, From the temple of Amen-Re, Karnak, Egypt, Dyanasty XVIII 1353-1335 BC
ANCIENT EGYPT
New Kingdom
Akhenaton is infamous for his religious revolution in Egypt during the eighteenth Dynasty.
The revolution in religion gave way to an artistic revolution in which the figures became elongated and androgynous in their appearance.
The pharaoh Amenhotep IV abandonded the worship of most of the Egyptian Gods in favor of the God Aton ( the god of the Sun). In honor of the new monotheistic religion, Amenhotep IV changed his name to Akhenaton.
He then moved the capital city of Egypt down the Nile River to the city of Thebes, now called Tell el-Amarna, where he built his own city and shrines.

Image gallery Nefertiti, Tell el-Amarna, Egypt, Dynasty XVIII1353-1335,
ANCIENT EGYPT
Nefertiti, the queen of Akhenaton, exhibits the features indicative of the Amarna Style. The delicate curving contours demonstrate a clear stylistic difference from that of the traditional Egyptian depiction of royalty.
Nefertiti’s name means “The Beautiful One is Here”.
The subject’s likeness has been adjusted to the new standard of spiritual beauty.
Features to be noted in this piece are the serpentine narrow neck that supports the heavy weight of the royal crown.

Threats to Tradition1355-1335 BCE
• Nefertiti– Wife of Akhenaton the only
pharaoh to even partially reject polytheism
– political move against priests of Amon-Re
– moved capital to Amarna– worshipped Aton, the sun
disk
• royal inbreeding.

Image gallery Tiye, Gurob, Egypt, Dynasty XVIII ca 1353-1335 bc
ANCIENT EGYPT
Tiye was the mother of Akhenaton.
The depiction of age is present here which is a new development in the style of art. Depictions of royalty did not illustrate the age of the subject prior to the Amarna period. This image clearly demonstrates the relaxation of the artistic rules.

Royal intimacy:
Such an intimate portrayal of the pharaoh and his family is unprecedented in Egyptian art, however, the style is familiar. We see the undulating curves and prominent bellies that characterize figures of the Amarna school.

Image gallery Death mask and innermost coffin of TutankhamenThebes, Egypt, Dynasty XVIII 1323 BC
ANCIENT EGYPT
Tutankhamen inherited the throne when he was only eight years old. The high officials associated with the young pharaoh made many of the decisions for the young ruler.
The first order of business for Tutankhamen was to reestablish the cult and priesthood of Amen and restore the temples and inscriptions of his name.
Once Akhenaton’s religious revolution was undone, artist returned to the old conservative manner.
Tutankhamen only ruled for only 10 years, and died when he was 18 years old. His death and funeral were sudden, and many scholars believe that it was no accident.
The evidence of his murder lies in bone fragments found in his skull, and the lacking attention to detail in his burial tomb. The lacking detail suggests a hurried burial, which is a suspicious considering the status of Tutankhaman.
![Page 35: 03 powerpoint p2b](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022012913/554ea9ffb4c9055f7b8b4d35/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Image galleryDeath mask and innermost coffin of TutankhamenThebes, Egypt, Dynasty XVIII 1323 BC
ANCIENT EGYPT
Scientific studies of the remains of Tutankhamen have lead researchers to believe that he had two rare spinal cord diseases. His spinal cord had a slight curve to it and the vertebrate were non-flexible where they met his skull.
The result of these rare diseases caused the pharaoh to need a walking stick as well as restricted the turning of his head.
Many depictions of the pharaoh illustrate him using a cane with his feet twisted beneath his body.

Image gallery Last Judgment of Hu-Nefer, Thebes, EgyptDynasty XIX 1290-1280 bc
ANCIENT EGYPT
Hu-Nefer was the royal scribe to the pharaoh Seti I. This tomb painting depicts the jackal-headed god, Anubis, leading Hu-Nefer down the hall of judgment. His soul has been favorably weighed and he is being brought by Horus to the presence of the green-faced Osiris.
This formula for imagery in Hu-Nefer’s tomb demonstrates a return to the Old Kingdom funerary illustrations

Discussion Questions
How do you speculate the great pyramids were built? What would have been some specific problems to consider?
Is Egyptian art similar stylistically to any Mesopotamian culture from that time? Which culture and how are they similar or different in style and cultural context?
What would be some reasons for the modification of pyramid scale and institution of rock-cut tombs as seen at Beni Hasan?
Why does a change in religion bring about a change in art in ancient Egypt? Describe some specific changes in the presentation of the human figure.
