Observation Of An Object

Some features include the size of the women and appearance. The size of the women in the sculpture shows that she is big and powerful. And the appearance and how she is sitting shows that she is a royalty or like Mellaart said goddess. Another understanding could of been that it was just a sculpture pertaining to body image.

The body of the woman has mane and the hair fall over accentuated breast feature on the body. The mane is o presenting both a feel of nobility and fright on the face of a lioness, which has a skull of bone and stylized whiskers on the face . The head is raised in a form of adoration with the solar disk and cobra emphasizing the cosmic aspects of the divinity of the goddess . The face is modeled with high precision on which the eyes are small and eyelids that have been painted as it were a collar or the robe’s edge. The statue is in a seated position on a block with the fingers that have been shaped significantly with a focus on the distinctive feature of anatomy that the artist sought to add with much delicacy, resting on her legs. The goddess’s legs have inscriptions that are added to the surface of the throne. She stands as a towering figure with soft feline features that invoke power and fear especially with the nature of her eyes in the statue. Her elegance calls attention to her presenting a valid reason why she was both feared and

She is shown as a goddess with a Bald Eagle which clearly represents the United States of America. This image also implies the fall of the British. In addition, it shows the goddess as youthful. I believe this shows the Americans as youthful and a country that is just being established.

She is placating the Egyptian king with stories of how she wishes to honor the passing of Menelaos.  She is portraying the qualities most commonly considered to be agathos in a female.  She is

Like the woman from the previous veranda post, this woman is the biggest of all the figures and is not touching the ground as well. She is also created with a variety different patterns and colors in red(mainly), yellow, brown and black. Which is completely different from the child, tricker deity Esu and the other female figure; these colors are yellow and two different shades of brown. Although not a part in the Ogboni society, portrayed in Benin royalty, the coral from the Mediterranean Sea is used often because of it’s red-blood color. The coral color red, represents immense power and is always associated with royalty. As for her position and positioning, I found it interesting that the mother and the child is above the tricker deity.This could be a call back to that she or women in general is a very critical part of the Ogboni society. Furthermore, the here woman is display to be sitting down, unlike the first woman presented in the first post who is standing. This woman created in this post is the only one sitting down compared to the all the other figures, who beneath her, seems to be silently bending and to the left of her, the child, who is upside

Nike of Samothrace is a sculpture from 190 BCE, first found on Samothrace, a Greek island, in 1863. This statue is a female figure with wings, wearing a flowing gown. It’s said to represent Nike, the Greek Goddess of Victory, and her winning in battle. It shows various elements of the Hellenistic period, such as the use of space and dimension. The Snake Goddess is a 1600 BCE figurine found in 1903, in Knossos, Crete by the British archaeologist Arthur Evans. It’s made of Faience, a glass-like material, and it shows a large breasted women whose holding two snakes on each of her hands supporting a feline-like figure on her head, and it’s wearing what seems to be a long layered skirt with a metal looking accessory or girdle on her waist. The biggest similarity between these two sculptures is that both represent femininity through this new sensual female form as well as strength, and both sculptures are

The clothes on the faïence figurine is the main importance of the empowerment of women. Dr. Christopher L.C.E. Witcombe explains on his website, “Www.arthistoryresources.net” the meaning of the figurine and how it contributes to the empowerment of women. First, she is wearing a crown on her head, which symbolizes she has a high status. Women back then weren’t viewed as equals to men. So, for a woman to have a higher status than a man means she has power to her. The dress she is wearing is tightly fitted on her body, and her chest is exposed. This illustrates, a woman who is in charge of her own body. The firmness of the breast suggest that the woman is young. With this in mind, not only does she have a high status and power, she has youth too. The choice of clothing in which you wear symbolizes the status that you are. In the case of “The Snake Goddess,” her clothing represents the power that she has.

The Social Pyramid of Ancient Egypt The social, political, cultural, and economic aspects of Egypt all seem different on the surface, but in reality, are more interconnected than one might think. The way we can see this is through scriptures, sculptures, artworks, burial goods, and other artifacts. Statues are the most relevant to the social aspect of Ancient Egypt, because they demonstrate the political, cultural, and economical dynamics of Ancient Egypt, while also telling us how people related to each other. When taking into account the social dynamics between the people of Egypt, many statues such as King Menkaura and Queen, Akhenaten and His Family, and The Narmer Palette, signify that the Ancient Egyptian society was centered around

Multiple changes took place in Southeast Asia as a result of the colonial control. Especially mixed results. One change that occurred was that economics grew vigorously. This happened because it was based on cash crops or goods that would eventually be sold on the world wide market. When before it was not being sold throughout the world. It was probably either sold within the French, who had been active in Southeast Asia since the 17th century.

I went to the Gracepoint Church’s Fall Fest on Halloween eve. Many interactive booths were prepared for the children, such as ring toss, dance floor, fishing for rubber dolphins, bean bag toss, beading station, and face painting. I hid behind my roommate who was working at the face painting booth that night. The location was perfect because of the high chairs at the booth gave me an easy view of the families in line and the children at the face painting station. I focused this observation on one pair of siblings, whom I will refer to as Jane (5 years old) and John (6 years old). Most children were impatiently waiting in line with their parents, including Jane and John. The two children discussed profusely what painting they wanted on their

As our immigration rate is at an almost all-time high, there are many different cultures in the United States. The different cultures often assimilate with each other and as a country, we must learn about each other. Most colleges have study-abroad programs and this teaches young adults the importances of different cultures. The students have the opportunity to immerse themselves in a culture that is different than their own. The Unites States is made up of different races from all different places. During some point in a person's life, they will meet someone of another culture. In a single neighborhood, there are people from different backgrounds. This allows children to interact with different cultures. The United States of America is made

The way that we perceive the world determines who we are. Travelling to unknown places changes our perspective of the world and transforms us to better people because it widens our knowledge of how others live.
