| | Art of Ancient Egypt - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | A new style of art was introduced that was more naturalistic than the stylized frieze favored in Egyptian art for the previous 1700 years. | | | Ancient Egyptian artists also discovered the art of covering pottery with enamel. | | | Egyptian art in all forms obeyed one law: the mode of representing man, nature and the environment remained almost the same for thousands of years and the most admired artists were those who replicated most admired styles of the past. |
