Document Summary
Eye and torso look straight at you. Don"t like things to be upside down. Viewpoint varies a lot in one piece of art to better show full images. Seeing everything that would be in the scene. Multiple viewpoints were also used by picasso. Relationships with other things in the image. Won"t cover focal points even if in reality they would be covered. Anubis - anthropomorphic (man"s body, animal head) Men shown in a reddish brown (generally) Women shown in a yellow (higher class, shows she stays inside instead of working in the fields so she is lighter in colour) Shown black because of black land (black fertile soil of nile land) Can also be green (colour of nature, plants resurrect) Amun ray - amun = to be hidden, ray = sun (to reveal) Blue (sky) with gold (sun) around and on him. Put lines under groups of people so it doesn"t look like they are floating.
