Scenario:
Consider the ways in which Ancient art expresses the idea of
power and authority through various symbols, oral traditions, stylized
depictions of the human figure and architectural design.
Real world applications:
The conveyance of power and authority through art is an ancient
tradition. Throughout time rulers and would be rulers have understood
the ability of art to communicate ideas and persuade. 
Portraits of emperors, kings, queens, priests, presidents or other
persons of power are important propaganda tools. Spin-doctors and
image-makers have always existed in the form of the artist. If the image
of a ruler is no different from that of an ordinary citizen, then what
justifies that person having power over all others in the society?
Instructions: 
You are to include all of the following required information in your Mastery presentation. 
BEGIN by clearly labeling the 2 art examples
that you noticed demonstrated the most powerful and authoritative
design.  Select from examples taken from the eBook.  Label both by
Ancient culture, “Titles”, and art forms (one portrait and one
architecture) example.
Ancient culture(s)—use the following: 
Ancient Egyptian
Ancient Roman
Art form selections:  you will select one Ancient Portrait and one Ancient Architecture example
Portrait—of a real or imaginary person/figure
e.g. Ancient
mythological god/goddess, ancient political leader, pharaoh, king/queen,
prince/princess, Olympian, warrior, gladiator.  The portrait may be a
3d sculpture (stone, metal, carved, pottery, mosaic) or, a 2d art
(painted, drawn) art form.
Architecture—a sacred space/building/structure
e.g. Ancient
religious temples, burial spaces; also, social spaces (Ancient forums,
theater, colosseum); and, personal spaces (Ancient dwellings).
Sentence content: arrange convincing and descriptive sentences for BOTH the portrait and architecture examples.  
Select various ‘icons of power’—copy as listed in bold type; icons CAN be repeated. 
Then, describe 5 examples of power that you noticed in the
Ancient Portrait and 5 examples of powerful design in the Ancient
architecture—describe by inserting key terms (Elements of Art or
Principles of Design) with completed specifics. 
e.g. Key terms can be repeated:  
Elements of Art–lines, shape, color, value, texture, repetition, pattern.
Principles of Design–unity, variety, emphasis, focal point, balance, etc. 
CONCLUSION:  end your presentation with 2 to 3 concluding sentences.
Use/insert transition words in your closing sentences
e.g. In conclusion,…; Finally,…; With this in mind,…; Therefore,…
Restate and mention both art examples by
“Title”.  Keep in mind the original scenario and how both of the
examples you chose, meets the narrative of ‘Power and Authority’.
Originality:  arrange effective visual aids for an interesting, unique or exceptional presentation.
e.g. for the portrait—art images should include a full-body portrait, creative close ups, cropped or labeled detailed images, etc.  
e.g. for clothing (icon of power)—a closeup of the distinct Ancient headgear or crown. 
e.g. for the architecture—aerial
photos of the overall structure, floor plan, sections (blueprint
images), or other creative closeup details for the building.
e.g. images related to the interior and/or, exterior of the building.
FORMAT:  Arrange all sentence content and visual aids using the following formats (see options below). 
PowerPoint—12 slides (introduction, 5 slides
for the Portrait and 5 for the architecture, conclusion).  Typed content
should be arranged accordingly throughout the slideshow. You can
