To select your work of art, visit their website: https://www.penn.museum/collections/highlights/sections.php.

Once on their website, you must choose the following for your project:

Ancient Egyptian Art (found under Egyptian Highlights)

A typical project will spend the first 5 slides (or more) describing both the content and the form of the art work in detail using at least 5 terms learned in class (ie. sculpture in the round, complementary colors, iconography, etc.) and possibly providing some background about the artist (but not more than 1 slide). You should address how the form and content are interacting (ie. Does the artists choice of medium enhance or detract from the narrative/subject or the message they are sending to the viewer?). Remember the form includes such factors as the sizes, shapes and placement of the works component parts. The content includes the narrative or story that is conveyed in the artwork.
The rest of the project should be spent comparing/contrasting the object to at least 1 other work that we discussed in the lectures. In the next 5 slides (or more), you should talk about how the works are similar and/or different.  The best comparisons are more similar than different. Avoid choosing comparisons that have few or no similarities. You must mention at least 3 ways they are the same and 3 ways they are different.  If you decide to do outside research you may want to talk about the works significance how it may be a political statement or shows an innovative style, for example.  Feel free to include diagrams that help to illustrate your points. Remember, this comparison must be a work that was covered in class.
