Egyptian art has a very distinctive style and overall layout. The most important figures are always the largest and often the most apparent, which are often represented by gods or kings. The artists of that era carefully followed artistic trends and commonly practiced strategies in representing humans, gods, and animals that made the figures disproportional. A statue clearly shows this disproportional style. A man, sitting next to his wife, is easily two times larger. This shows that this society obviously saw the man as the head honcho. The woman is also standing, and not sitting. Perhaps this is a sign that the woman is ready to do whatever the husband may ask. It may even just be depicted that way because he is a person of noble lineage. There is often a noticeable difference in the way humans and gods dress and the jewelry that is worn.
