Los Angeles Valley College Greek and Egyptian Art Discussion

This is a fantastic cartoon because it is using a stylistic comparison to make a joke. In 3-5 sentences using art historical terminology, describe the stylistic difference between Greek and Egyptian art using this cartoon as your reference. Make sure to demonstrate your understanding of contrapposto.

(Important: All posts should be brief paragraphs, 5-7 sentences with no quoted or paraphrased material. Please use your own words. Longer posts with irrelevant information will have points deducted.)

Post on Time: All Discussion posts are due Wednesdays. You must post your initial discussion by the due date. After the due date you will have 2 days to respond to others (including responding to the professor if asked). If your initial post is not by the due date, you will receive a 0 for the assignment. Please note that you must post before seeing the work of other students. If you write an initial post in order to see other responses, then delete it and repost, or return to “edit” a post, you will receive a 0 grade.

Keep it Short: Do NOT post more than 5 sentences and stick to the point. (any posts longer than 5 sentences will be deleted and you will be asked to re-post.) No one wants to read an entire essay or a bunch of random information. Make it short and conversational and answer the prompts directly. (Don’t rephrase the prompt either, answer it instead.)
