Art in Ancient Egypt

When talking about art in ancient Egypt we must share it from the following aspects:

Architecture - Sculpture in the old State and Central State and the Empire During the reign of kings Alsaoyen -
Inscriptions cavernous - photography - Minor Arts - Music - Arts

It was the greatest art elements of this civilization; we find in this country, and in the era of almost the beginning of the era of civilizations, a strong mature art of the finest art of any modern state, not only parallels the art of Greece. It's been characterized by Egypt in the first covenants of isolation and peace, then the flow which then from the spoils of injustice and war during the reign of Thutmose III and Ramses II, allowing them favorable opportunity and means to ensure the construction of large buildings, carving solid statues, and ingenuity in several other arts small, almost perfect in this distant era. If one stands aghast bewildered hardly believe what the researchers developed theories of the evolution of human progress if looked at ancient Egyptian art products.

The architecture plush Egyptian art at all, so to combine the splendor and magnitude of hardness and beauty and utility. This art has begun a modest beginning to decorate graves and engraving foreign destination to the walls of houses. The large number of houses built of mud punctuated by sometimes simple works of wood (Japanese or beautiful doors Kalnuaz drilling retina), and the roof built on the trunks of palm trees easy treatment. And it was surrounded Casablanca usually includes a courtyard wall, it is stepping up stairs to the roof of the house; and from the population come down to the cabins. It was of the affluent of Alohlain private gardens mean coordinated; it was in urban public parks for the poor, and almost devoid House of cut flowers. The adorn the walls of the house from the inside colorful inventory, and carpeted home Batunavs, if a landlord capacity. The population prefer to sit on this Tunavs sitting on the chairs and the Egyptians in the era of the old state eating as they sat Mrtbon They have tables Falabella to six inches as does the Japanese these days, and they ate with their hands on Shakespeare the way; when he was Prince of the Empire, and say the price Slaves became members of the upper classes are sitting on high chairs with cushions, and give them their servants varieties of food items after class.

Art forms

 

• Architecture:

The top of the building blocks that are used in the construction of houses; and this was one of the luxury materials own priests and kings. Even nobles Onevshm- They are the many community Tmouh- favored temples, the largest share of the wealth and the best building materials; and for this, the palaces were overlooking the Nile, which was barely empty miles of one of them in the days of the Third Amenhotep has destroyed the whole Effat effects on while the shrines of the gods and the tombs of the dead has remained to the present day. And when the second family came ten is no longer a pyramid granulated to landfills dead-fashioned, but this chose Khnum Hotep (about 1180 BC) to the burial place at Bani Hassan form quieter forms of the pyramid's tomb, a baptized in the arms of the mountain; and almost the idea prove and settle even taken thousands of different forms between the hills along the western side of the Nile. Thus it emerged from the sands of Egypt between the era of the Pyramids and the Covenant in which Hathor structure built at any Dndrh- within three years or thousands of different forms Nhoha- buildings never Tvgaha groves any civilization from other civilizations.

• Sculpture:

 In Karnak and Luxor copse of columns erected Tuthmosis I, III, III and Amenhotep, and Seti I and Ramses II and other kings between the Twelfth Dynasty twenty-second and the family; and in the city Habboo (about 1300 BC), said plenty deferral, though unrivaled edifices the aforementioned in grandeur, it has later Arab village and remained stuck on his chest several centuries. In Abydos (godmother) built the first structure of the City which was left of it but a huge ruins of bleak bleak; in Elephantine small temple, a temple of Khnum (about 1400 BC) "Greek in a constructive and thicken accuracy" (191); and in the monastery maritime colonnade which Hadth Queen Hatshepsut, and near the Ramesseum another copse of mayors and statues Giants Chadha Engineers and slaves who SKM Ramses II, and in the Philae Temple of Isis beautiful island (about 240 BC), the abandoned desolate these days because the Aswan Reservoir may submerge rules baptized, which amounted to in architecture and end Alkamal- these few scattered remnants that are the only models of ancient monuments that still sweeten the Nile Valley and Jaraibha to pronounce itself to what it was the people who Chadha of strength and bravery. Perhaps in these edifices excessive and convergence in the columns from each other to prevent the hot sun Allavh, and perhaps the furthest from proportionality is one of the characteristics of the Far East, and a lack of unity, and Hayama brutal voluminous Khyam people these days. If so Also, where also the greatness and named and majesty and power; the arches and contracts is that I said what is it only a few need it, but in terms of the principles on which it built going in by going to the principles on which it built mayors and arches in the land of the Greeks and Romans In modern Europe , and the inscriptions for decoration not higher other inscriptions in the history of the whole world, and the mayors on the image sticks papyrus and Alozord (Allons), and mayors from the first league style and baptized in the image of women, and crowns of Mayors some of which is in the form of Hathor, some of which is in the image of the palm; and the failure of windows near the ceiling; and where the thresholds luxury characterized by force and stability, which are the spirit of strong gravity in the art of architecture. The Egyptians, for I am their greatest Builders in the whole history without controversy.

It adds to the people of this they are also the greatest examples, we have created at the beginning of their history that the Sphinx statue, which symbolizes the literary qualities that characterized by a powerful pharaohs; and perhaps this is the Pharaoh Khafre. The statue is not only reflects the strength but disclosed as well as physical characteristics. I have smashed a shot from defender Mamluks statue's nose ring and a beard, but his features powerful mega reflect the best expression of what Oqguah characterized by that King of force and solemnity, calm and maturation, all recipes must not depart from the king. The features of these populations are higher slight smile did not Tvargaha since five thousand years, as if the unknown artist who coined the unknown or the king, who symbolizes the statue to him, he understood what all of creation wants to understand all creation. And the right that he is "Munalizh" of rock deaf.
Nothing in the history of the most beautiful sculpture of the Statue of Khafre made of diorite stone, which is now in the Cairo Museum. I've had this statue in the old days Hrksteliz, Hrksteliz introduced himself to us; with this era has passed the length of time fiftieth centuries, then came to us and did not affect the exhaust hardly ever and Noaibh. I've made this statue from harder stones and most intractable human, but convey to us the fullest force transport be King (or artist) physical, and his power and his stubbornness and hardness of his mind and his prowess and intelligence. And sitting next to him surly sullen statue of the king of the oldest of his era and is the first statue of King Zoser made from limestone statue. And later evidence reveals you flicked the match for transparency wonderful statue of alabaster statue is Menkaure.
And peerless statue of Sheikh el-Balad and writer statues of kings in terms of creativity and artistic perfection that is not beyond mastery. The writer statue arrived to us in many forms, all of the covenants we do not know, for sure, but the most famous of all the saved Almterpa writer statue in the Louvre. Sheikh of the country and not a statue of Sheikh right, but the laborers statue Musharraf to stick his hand Authority, stepping forward like workers or notes issued his orders to them. It seems that the name is "Kaabaro" But Egyptian workers who pulled him out of his tomb in Saqqara has astonished at what they saw of the similarity between him and Sheikh of the country in which Asknnouna, suggested to them Vkahthm this title, best known him and who is still to this day his lieutenant. This statue is made of wood exhibition for wear, but the time has not undermines the distortion of his body is full, or legs Alglaztin; and betrays the center of his body on to his owners in all civilizations of capacity in livelihoods and the lack of the toil, and pronounced his face round the conviction of a man who knows his place and proud of it. And it makes us his bald head and his clothes Almtahedl on realistic art, which was at that time had reached the foot degree authorized him to revolutionize the traditions that have made the ancient art, for example, the top model; but it is also a beautiful full and humane simply expressed by example, without hatred or bitterness, and expressed in ease and agility, characterized by their confident craftsmen hand. At that Mspiro says: "If an exhibition of masterpieces of art created in the whole world to choose this statue to represent the greatness of Egyptian art" - or do you believe from this that specialize statue of Khafre this honor?
These are masterpieces of ancient statues of the state. But there are many other technical verses lower than splendor, including the Statue of Rahotep and his wife Galsan, including the powerful statue of the priest Rnobo, including a statue of King Viobs and his son Almsbuban of copper, including the head of Sparrowhawk of gold, including two photos Ahazzlitan to a contemporary wine and dwarf Cnamhotb, all but one of them in the Egyptian Museum in Cairo, all without exception, speaking Photos morality of their respective owners. We do not deny that the pieces magnifying them rough is polished-made, and that the statues had been manufactured and their bodies and eyes bound forward, while the hands and feet have drawn from one of the two sides, and that in keeping behind knew strange practice in all forms of Egyptian art, and that the body was not of the artist great care, and that like most often in well-established image codified do not agree with Allowaqa- were the bodies of the statues are all women Tsourhn girls in crack youth and statues of kings show them all of them are strong, and that the individual although they have reached in their art degree high may keep it usually warheads without objects . But no matter of inertia and symmetry which to really sculpture, photography and prominent engraving and imposed by the priests of custom restrictions, and Sultan them severe, in spite of all this, this shortage has been offset by the depth of thinking, and the strength and accuracy in implementation, and characterized by the industry of nature special, direction and fine-tuning.
The truth is that the art of sculpture was not in the country of the country's more vital than it was in Egypt. The Sheikh statue to come out on all authority, and that the woman who grind love to accept it with all in the same feelings and in the body of the muscles, and the writer of the matter in writing, although the small thousands of dolls that have been developed in the graves of the necessary for the dead duties have been drafted whole so that it appears it manifestations of activity and the body is hardly believe that with him, as he had thought the pious Egyptians, that the dead can not make their servants as long as those around them.
After the reign of the first families of Egyptian art sculpture products not up to what it was in the restored only after the many centuries ago. While most of the statues but making structures or graves have been priests who decide to a large patterns that Altzmha artist extent. It is in this way leaked to the art of religious conservatism, Fjtm at the heart of the Art nightmare because of tradition, and it was the cause of the deterioration. When he came to power that the kings of the Twelfth Dynasty mighty spirit returned mundane non-religious to emerge and have proved themselves, and art has regained a bit of the old strength, and artists exceeded what it was like their ancestors ancients of craftsmanship.
And it suggests the head of Amenemhat III carved from stone diorite are creating a new art and sent to morality. The head of the beholder to this Astv him this Alumblyk hardness of the Almighty, who is aware that his sculpture artist Kadir also. There is a huge statue of the third Snosert adorned head and face at least the idea that inspired it, nor the ability, which brought out, what inspired and directed by any other image in the history of the art of the whole sculpture. If the rest of the trunk Snossrit first statue in the Cairo Museum for peerless trunk Hrkol statue in the Louvre. Abound statues of animals in each era of the eras of Egyptian history, all of which are overflowing with life, here we find a rat chewed hazelnut, and there you see a monkey hits the water and reveals all of his skill in this beating, or Guenvma not all spines thorn Fair Mentvhh. Then came the Hyksos kings and the disappearance of Egyptian art only slightly and sent a second injection of Art on the banks of the Nile in the rule of Hatshepsut and Thutmose and Amenhotep, and called their names from the Kings. So I took that wealth flowing to Egypt from Syria, and to shift its course structures and palaces of kings, and dripped them to nourish the arts of all kinds.
The statues of Tuthmosis III and Ramses II head-butting the sky, and filled all corners of structures of various statues, and numerous masterpieces of art multitude unprecedented at the hands of the people who sent haunted by the euphoria of what it reached in his claim of sovereignty over the entire world. The bust of the great Queen carved from stone Aloabl and saved in the Technical Museum in New York, the Statue of Thutmose III made of basalt, preserved in the Cairo Museum, and sphinxes made during the reign of Amenhotep III and preserved in the British Museum, and the statue of Akhenaten who sits made of lime stone and preserved in museum the Louvre, and the statue of the king himself perched It offers the gift of the gods Jthoma hardly human believe that he is doing and that such Aljthom fuller representation, notepad in Deir el-Bahari and the cow which sees Mspiro as "comparable to the finest verses of Greek art and similar Roman her" and did Amenhotep III, who told them Rskn they are the best at what is left of ancient reel father of statues of animals, huge statues, which were made in the rock at Abu Simbel Mthalo Ramses II, the wonderful effects curiosities found in the ruins of the awarded artist Tuthmosis in Tel Alamarnh- which include a model of gypsum to the head of Akhenaten utter what was in This Covenant is full of tragedies of the tendency of poetry and Tsofih- and bust beautiful made of lime stone for Nefertiti King Akhenaten's wife and the head of this beautiful Queen made of stone Khersan It is the most beautiful of the bust above, and these examples scattered in the countries of the world to imagine the reader a copy of the work of extraordinary range of sculpture by flooding the Empire era. Fruit and did not lose its status among the great masterpieces; Valmthalon Egyptians having fun comics funny statues of humans and animals; and even kings in the era of Akhenaten crusher idols Egyptian artist may make them smile and play. That the flame of artistic renaissance that soon subsided after the reign of Ramses II, Egyptian art remained after him many centuries old and repeat business forms. Art and tried to recuperating in the era of the kings of Sao, and return to what was taken away by the top artists in the era of the old state of sincerity and simplicity in photography. Almthalon has treated in the era of this country the hardest stones Kohjar basalt and serpentine (live) and alabaster and Aldiorit- and of which sculpted statues and realistic statue of them live Menteoummihat and bald head of green basalt does not know the owner now overlooking the walls of the State Museum in Berlin. It made it a bronze beautiful picture of the lady Tkowsst, has also Oolawa photographed features of people, animals and their movements for what they are, Venhtwa statues funny animals, exotic, and the servants of the gods, and made out of my head bronze cat and a goat are now Mnhopat Berlin. Then the Persians then pounced on the country Nqdad wolves prey on lambs deposit peaceful, Egypt and opened the ruined structures and suppressed the spirit of the country and spent on the arts.  

• Drawing :

 

Sculpture, architecture and the most important Egyptian art, but if we have introduced abundance in our account we had to add them inscriptions cavernous. It is not the world's people very people dig in their history and myths grandfather as the ancient Egyptians. And I am surprised at first sight between engraved stories on the precious stones of the similarity of boring, as surprising congestion and plentiful, and the lack of symmetry and non-observance of the rules of the scene, or attempts is successful they have made to consider the representation of distant objects in the landscape above the village; and we are surprised when we see the length of King Palace taller and taller enemies. This in engravings, photography, and sculpture difficult for us to be accustomed to seeing the eyes and the issuance drawn as if we look at it from the front while the noses and chins and feet painted as if we look at it from a Ganpin- But in return for this are shocked beauty Bashiq and Snake Almnicohan on the tomb of the king and Nevis, and the inscriptions of King Zoser limestone on the pyramid of Saqqara, and inscriptions Prince Hazeerah wood extracted from his grave in this same position, and the image of the lobby wounded carved on the tomb of the tombs of the Fifth Dynasty in Abu Sir, a careful examination of the body muscles tense in pain and finally we can only reflect on patiently and quietly long inscriptions enlighten us how swept Tuthmosis III and Ramses II in wars all objected to what their release, and realize the splendor inscriptions dug Seti I in the godmother In Karnak and discern what language from perfection, and we follow with great longing and pleasure inscriptions carved on the walls of the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut in Marine monastery, which tells us they had discussed the mission sent by the Queen to the land of the unknown girl story (and perhaps the country's Somalia). In these inscriptions we see long ships published sail paid to the south Mjadifaa matrix, and sailing full of water an animal octopus and crustaceans and other beasts sea; and see the fleet up to the girl beaches and welcomed by the people of the country and Mena, who Mahlon but Mufttnon. And see navigators come to the ships thousands of forms of cuisine; and read the humor factor Abannta in saying: "Never still your feet you standing here; Be warned!" Then Nsahb Ambassain esteemed Bohmalha which is returning to the north-filled (as it says the inscription) wonders girl land , of gold, different species and timber, and fats for the eyes, and monkeys, and dogs, and skins Nmorh. Thus it is no longer one of the king of kings since the beginning of the world. And penetrate the ships of the great canal between the Red Sea and the Nile, and see the mission to dock their vessels in good pools and emptied of what the various goods at the feet of the Queen. Then another blind about it, as if I have ever been on their arrival some time, all of these imported goods adorn Egypt. In each hand an ornament of gold, ebony and perfume boxes and fats and elephant teeth and animal skins; and trees that were brought out of the girl like it had blossomed in the land of Egypt, as they were in their countries of origin so that was the bulls Ttefio the shadows of branches. This inscription is undoubtedly the greatest for those inscriptions in the history of art.
The intaglio is a link between sculpture and painting in color. Colored drawing that has not lived in Egypt to the status of independent art, but in the era of the Ptolemies and the impact of Greece. With the exception of that era was a follower of a secondary art architecture, sculpture, Nakec- was the work of the painter is to fill the external lines dug by a number of other artists; but it was despite the high stature and widespread human wherever he sees a solution. Most of the statues were painted, and the surfaces are all discoloration. As this art susceptible in time lacks artistic sculpture and construction clothes, we can hardly find now of colorful cartoons, directed by men of the old state, but I'm not a great image of geese taken out of the grave in Meidum. But we are entitled to infer from this image alone that this art also has reached in the era of the first families Idnyh amount of perfection. Moving on to the era of the Middle Kingdom found fees watercolor in my grave and right Khnum Hotep Beni Hassan, which adorn the graves Accessories beautiful send in the beholder them pleasure and joy, and also that the image of "antelope and Agriculture" and the image of "Cat await their prey" for the preparing of the finest examples of this art. The artist alert in these two pictures also the main ingredient in photography, which is to make his drawings of living organisms move and live.
When was the era of the Empire filled graves colored fees, and the Egyptian artist had reached making every color of the spectrum, and longed himself to be Hzgah shows people in the use he took trying to portray active life thriving in sunny fields on the walls of houses and structures, palaces, tombs and on the whole roofs, Images of the birds flying in the air, and thicker floating in the water, and animals living in the bushes, and images are all in their environments in which they live. And engraving of the earth to look like a transparent pools, and tried to make the ceiling comparable in splendor and glory of heaven planets, and took these pictures are all geometric patterns and other vehicles from the foliage varies from the simplest to the most complex duties quiet and most strife. "The image of the dancer girl" and the largest share of the power of innovation and the spirit of art, and the "bird hunting in a boat", and the picture painted with ocher, which represents the beautiful girl Alheivae bare between musicians in a tomb sculpture goodness of all of these different models of the population of the graves photographers. We note in these fees as we have seen in the inscriptions that cavernous beautiful lines, but the structure is weak; and that the participants in the one representing the work of scattered one after one they who must be brought mixed. And we see the painter here would prefer to put the pieces on each other rather than take into account the established rules of perspective, that the deadlock arising from the preservation of formal rules and traditions in the Egyptian sculpture was prevalent at the time, but it does not reveal to us this art for humor emitting on cheerful, or at realism, two qualities which have characterized them in the art of sculpture beyond that age. But all the pictures that go with the grandmother of thinking, is pleased to draw the lines and in the implementation, and dedication to the life of organisms and their movements, and in the abundance of color and ornamental send in the soul joy, fun and make images of the eye and spirit. The owners say that the art of drawing-Egyptian although it has not been preceded by Ajub- of art like him in any oriental civilization, but in the era of the country's households in Central China.

•  Minor Arts: 

The Minor Arts was the greatest and the arts in Egypt. The Wiz and grandfather who Shida Karnak and the Pyramids, and the two statues stone structures filled out, you may also Anasrva to beautify homes inside, decorating objects, and innovation of all the pleasures of life and Namha. Valensagon has made Tunavs embroidered cloth that adorns the walls, pillows rich colors and kind in woven paper hardly believe her mind and moved fees that invented them to Syria and continues to spread in these days. They have revealed the remnants of Tutankhamun than it was the ancient Egyptians furniture from the luxury of wondrous, and what language each piece and every part of a piece of fine-tuning Badi, both the Karaseh coated with silver and gold Albracan, and the harm of luxury fees and Precision Industry, boxes jewelery boxes perfume made minute Fine engraving, vases which unequaled but China vases. It was their tables carrying precious vessels of silver and gold, bronze, and Kaosa of Crystal, glamorous and Ajafana of diorite stone and polished until almost stolen light implemented through stone walls. What it included remnants of Tutankhamun of alabaster pots, and prospectors found in the ruins of the house of Amenhotep III at Thebes of glasses in the form of Alozord (Allts) and bowls of syrup, for an indication of how language ceramics from a high level. The last thing this Jewels remind him of the Middle Kingdom, the modern state, and it was for these two Covenants of the many precious ornaments are hardly surpassed anything in the beauty of form and accuracy of manufacture. And it includes the remaining groups of those days, necklaces, and crowns, rings, bracelets, mirrors, and trim of the chest, and the chains, medallions, coined gold and silver and carnelian and feldspar and lapis lazuli and Aljmst, and all that we know of precious stones. The Egyptians Sarat Ksrah Japanese rude awakening beauty of their surroundings of small antiques, and each small square of ivory in their jewelry boxes engraved and decorated with beautiful decoration and most accurate. They were dressed in beautiful clothes, but they were enjoying the best of an existence, and if they were emptied of their daily work regale themselves quiet tones, pop music on the lute and harp, flute and Asalasl. The structures and palaces teams of instrumentalists and singers, and it was the king's palace staff "Musharraf to sing" is organized by musicians and musicians who Wilson King. We have no evidence of the existence of musical signs in Egypt, but this may just be a shortage in detecting the effects of the Egyptians. The Osnfro turnoff, and Ramery Petah Nabgta singing in their days, and I listen to during the long centuries of their voices and two They urge that they were "Ajiban every desire of the wishes of the King Bgenaihma melodious".

It is anomalous unusual to stay a name of these two artists, because artists who immortalized their efforts memories of princes and priests, artists, kings or their physical appearance they do not have the means transporting it reminded them to from coming after them, even though we hear Bamahotb architect of the reign of Djoser, a man barely to be named a legend of ancient legends, and hear about the groaning which prepared the great buildings fees, such as the Temple of Deir el-Bahari first of Tuthmosis; and Boehmer, and Ahbusenb, and will die who Chadoa the great buildings of Queen Hatshepsut, and Thutmose artist who revealed in the remains of his studio many of the masterpieces of art , and your proud example, which tells us that otherwise pardoned on the name of Akhenaten time. It was the third of Amenhotep architect also called Amenhotep bin Habo. The king was put at the disposal of this talented engineer wealth Akhtiha limited, and shot to the name of this famous artist until his slave Egypt and later adopted by the god of gods. But artists in spite of this they are working and they are overwhelmed by the poor, was not for them when priests and elders who are using them superior status of prestige manufacturers or employers ordinary character. Egyptian religion has collaborated with the Egyptian wealth to suggest art and augmentation, and cooperation with the wealth of Egypt and the loss of its empire on Amataath. It was a religion provides incentives for artists and shapes, and suggests them great works of art, but it is imposed on them from custom and what the restrictions stretched to the church in the strongest links. When he died between artists pure religion, he died with his death the arts who lived on this debt. That is the tragedy that barely survive the evil any Medinh- namely, that in the spirit of faith, and that this spirit rarely remain after courtyard philosophy.
