• Egyptian art and sculpture extend from
prehistory to the time of Alexander the
Great and the conquering of Egypt by
the Greeks, then the Romans. The
earliest recorded Egyptian art is a
depiction of a human face at Merimde
Beni Salam, during the Neolithic
period, which extended from 7000 to
4500 B.C.
• Four sculptures of
pharaoh Ramses II.
The temple of Abu
Simbel, built in his
honour.
• The tools of the trade
include cement
trowels, straws and
paintbrushes, and
palette knives for the
more detailed work
such as hieroglyphics
• Cut in the most
intractable of stones,
it passes on to us
completely the
strength and
authority, the
wilfulness and
courage, the
sensitivity and
intelligence of the
(artist or the) King.
Rules of Egyptian Sculpture
• Sculptures were made of stone or
wood.
All sculptures from stone started with a
finished block of stone. The stone was
worked or sculpted from all four sides
at the same time and was not the work
of one person, as it is today.
The figures could sit, stand or kneel.
The arms and legs were not free from
the block because they feared
extended limbs would beak off.
Statues were normally view from the
front although all sides of a piece were
finished in some way.
As with painting the statues of
pharaohs were not intended to look
like the pharaoh or his queen. The
pharaoh as god and his queen were
intended to be beautiful.
Pharaoh Menkaure and his Queen
Dynasty 4 2548-2530 BCE
the standard rules for standing
sculpture.
1. Both the Pharaoh and his Queen are
beautiful. The faces do not look like
the Pharaoh or his Queen.
2. They both have hansom well formed
bodies.
3. Both individuals are connected to the
block, they are not free standing.4.
They each have their left foot forward.5.
This is the grid that would have been
used when the sculpture was started.
Note that the queen is only faintly
drawn because the Pharaoh would
have had his foot, the part closest to
the edge of the stone done first from
the front and from the left side of the
block of stone.
