2. Then, in a substantial paragraph, discuss the style qualities the pair share and describe the style conventions as you see them.
•how are humans rendered and does the social
status of the figure make a difference in the
portrayal?
3. Your next step is to introduce one work produced during the time of Akhenaten. Analyze your sample style.
•discuss, in one paragraph, how artistic
conventions were altered during the reign of
