Anotations

Scope note:

Refers to the period in Egypt from about 1292 to 1190 BCE. The period is characterized by a return to more traditional styles and subject matter after the end of the Amarna period, but also an ecclecticism in sculptural styles and a diversity of artistic standards particularly in relief decoration which ranged from elegant and carefully carved examples to careless and incomplete works.
