Which of the following are conventions of Egyptian sculpture that lasted for thousands of years? A. Figures had solemn expressions, symmetrical poses, and skin tones of reddish- brown for males and creamy for females.
B. Figures were often depicted in complex poses and had exaggerated proportions and muscular bodies.
C. Figures were sculpted in high relief to make them stand out dramatically from the background surface.

A. Figures had solemn expressions, symmetrical poses, and skin tones of reddish- brown for males and creamy for females.

Explanation:

A. is the right answer. Egyptian sculpture usually used strict proportions and parameters. The figures were stiff, static, with natural and serious expressions, not displaying many emotions. They always looked dignified, solemn, and ceremonious. Those who were found with paint on them have shown us that they used reddish colors for male skin, and more pale color for female skin, while most likely wearing white clothes and having glass eyes with a deep stare.

B. is not right. Egyptian figures did not have complex poses, and their proportions weren’t exaggerated.

C. is not the correct answer. Egyptian sculptures weren’t necessary reliefs, and when they were they weren’t often high relief.
