Question

Which of the following conventions did Egyptian artists use in tomb sculptures?

Answer 1

Answer:

Forms with no projecting parts that could break

Explanation:

Egyptian sculpture follows a strict design style. In order to be faithful with the real representation, each body part had to be of a certain size and proportion, with its shoulders and face facing the viewer. The male statues were darker than the female ones; in the sitting statues, the hands had to be brought to their knees. Another important point, however, is the absence of the traditional projecting forms which can be found in other cultures, especially in the Greek culture. For the Egyptians, the sculpture should portray the Pharao or the God with perfection, but because of their art conception and the no use of traditional perspective, their statues didn't have any projecting part.

Answer 2

Forms with no projecting parts that could break.
