Description
Is Ancient Egyptian art truly unchanging for thousands of years? Were the Egyptians just stuck in the mud or what? No and no! The Top 10 Ancient Egyptian Myths and Misconceptions continues with an examination of broad changes to Egyptian art across the history of their civilization. We go from the Early Dynastic Period through the Old and Middle Kingdoms up to the New Kingdom and beyond exploring stylistic and thematic variation that's deeply entrenched in Ancient Egypt's cultural evolution. In this episode, we look closely at the Narmer Palette, relief decoration at Karnak Temple, and a plethora of works from the Art Institute of Chicago. Explore more at http://ancientartpodcast.org.
