Answer the following question in 3-4 complete sentences. Name the Egyptian sculpture above. Describe the symbolism of its different parts.

Answer:

Answers may vary, but should be similar to the following: This sculpture is entitled, Pepy II and His Mother, Queen Ankhes-meryre. The sculpture shows Pepy, who inherited the throne at age six. Most likely, the queen acted as a regent (a representative) until Pepy was old enough to rule the kingdom himself. Pepy is smaller, because he is less important at the time this sculpture was made, but his features are adult-like and proportionate to his overall size.
