The iconic greywacke relief sculpture of King Menkaure (Mycerinus) and queen shows the characteristics of Egyptian pharaonic sculpture. He is rigid, frontal, with one foot forward as a sign of life. The queen's gesture is one of familial belonging rather than protection.
<h3><u>
Who was King Menkaure?</u></h3>
- Menkaure, also known by the Hellenized names Mykerinos (Greek: M) and Menkheres (Greek: ), was an ancient Egyptian king (pharaoh) of the fourth dynasty during the Old Kingdom.
- His Egyptian transliteration is mn-k3w-R. (by Manetho). In contrast to Manetho's assertion that he succeeded Khafre to the throne, archaeological evidence indicates that he actually succeeded Khafre. Africanus (from Syncellus) lists Sôris, Suphis I, Suphis II, Mencherês, Ratoisês, Bicheris, Sebercherês, and Thamphthis as the four rulers of the fourth dynasty.
Menkaure gained fame for his Giza mausoleum, the Pyramid of Menkaure, and his statue triads, which depicted the king with his wives Rekhetre and Khamerernebty as well as with numerous gods.

The correct answer is Teiresias. He is the character form the play Antigone by Sophocles where his presence is in the climax. It is when Creon finally relents and agrees to do the right thing - bury Polynices and pardon Antigone.
1: I like Classical, and Romantic styles. I like the classical style because of the way mozart and haydn made their music. Grand, kind of shallow in terms of emotion, and the abundance of it being played in G major xD. I like the romantic style because of the emotion. The use of dissonance and chromatic movements.
2: Modern technology has lead to things like smooth jazz, vaporwave, and EDM. Jazz originated from people changing the parts of marching music. MOdern technology is doing the same things, but using computers and electronic sounds, leading to a larger variety of music. Modern technology will affect music inv the future the same way it has already.
Printmaking is the activity or occupation of making pictures or designs by printing them from specially prepared plates or blocks.
The four main types of printmaking are Lithography and Intaglio
Lithography is printing from a stone or a metal plate with a smooth surface it can be used to print text or artwork onto paper or other surface material.
Intaglio is the family of printing and printmaking techniques in which the image is incised into a surface and the incised line or sunken area holds the ink it is the direct opposite of a relief print.
Relief printing is printing from raised images as in letterpress and flexography.
Screen printing is where you face ink or metal onto (a surface) through a prepared screen of fine material so as to create a picture or pattern.
