Featuring 3 different ways artists envisioned the aspect of men, beginning from the Anavysos
Kouros, with a strong and standing figure, almost intimidated the audience with a clenched fist, and the figure's muscles enhanced the sense of power portrayed. Continuing on with the depiction of Bodhisattva Seated in Meditation, drawn with a more enlightened stance, once foot crossed over the other with more cultural clothes depicted on the figurine. In this image, the Bodhisattva is shown seated instead of standing as shown in the previous image however the image actually depicts the feeling of power and spirituality due to the obtained enlightenment which is portrayed. In the final image, the Seated Scribe is shown dully seated on the ground, with no overly exaggerated muscles or height, more depicted as a lower average person in the hierarchy scale. During this time in Ancient Egypt, the artwork would be drawn as the taller and longer the person looked the more important and more powerful full they would be portrayed as. In this image, it is shown as lower than people with power due to being depicted as such.]]> 2021-11-04 23:52:07 UTC https://padlet.com/sohailali2333/Bookmarks/wish/1868648495
