The Tombs of Amarna : Adaptation or Revolution?

Original language description

Amarna art has an exceptional position in Egyptian history; it is perceived as revolutionary. This paper looks at the decoration of the tombs of official buried at Tell el-Amarna with the motivation to examine how different their decoration was from previous periods. It shows how the chapels were adapted to the new reality. How previous motifs were used, reinterpreted, imitated and composed into new scenes. The question of whether the Amarna tombs had the same functions as the Theban tombs is also addressed.
