Spanning a period of over 500 years, the Old Kingdom was considered by Ancient Egyptians to be the golden age of their civilization. Its art already exhibited all forms of Egyptian genius, from the great stone architecture and monumental statues, to painted and sculpted décor, stonework and precious metalwork. The symposium proceedings provide material for new debate on the dating of works and the stylistic features of the major artistic movements.
