Write a Research on the Statuette of the Lady Tide.Pick ONE Major museum website to use: Louvre, Metropolitan Museum of Art, MFA Boston etc., and explore their collections. You must choose one object from either the Ancient Near Eastern collection, the Egyptian collection, Greek collection, or the Roman collection. Do not choose an object that has a lot written about it but rather one that will require you to do some research to find out about it. Paper will be 1000 words (using 12-point Arial font, double spaced) and will consist of a catalog desсrіption of the object including information such as size and basic narrative desсrіption (approx.1-2 pages) and research on the object (approx. 2-3 pages). The final paper should include proper footnotes/endnotes and a Works Cited/Bibliography page. Also, you need to include an image of the object you choose and a picture of the receipt from your visit. You may not use websites as sources although you may use digital resources such as articles through databases such as JSTOR. Your paper should include the following: ″Basic information″: Artist′s name (if known), the title of work, date, medium, inventory number (copy down all this information from the museum label), and its location in the museum. First, a full desсrіption of the scene (or statue) in your own words. Aim for clarity and precision, expressed in simple declarative sentences. Two principles to bear in mind: 1) in general, the more detail in your desсrіption, the better; 2) a good desсrіption = a neutral, straightforward account of close visual observation, with little or no subjective comments of personal opinion. While each paper will differ slightly according to the nature of your own particular piece, your desсrіption should be organized along these basic lines: An overall statement of the whole. In a sentence or two, what is this thing, what does it represent? Material and condition: maximum dimensions of the piece; the material it is made of; its state of preservation. List all marks of damage to the piece. Any signs of modern restoration or repair? Next, a detailed, comprehensive desсrіption of the work, part by part, in whatever order makes the most sense to you. (For example for a statue perhaps start from the head and work your way down to the feet, for a vase start from the rim and work your way down to the base etc. ) Then, a brief visual analysis of the work in question. How would you characterize the artist′s technique and use of this particular medium? What stylistic features in the history of Egyptian/Greek etc art are represented by this work? What appears to have been the main aims or concerns of the artist? Research. The purpose of this part is by means of comparison and/or research, to put the piece in its historical and archaeological context. To shed further light on the meaning and significance of your piece, you are asked to look into various aspects of its origin, function, and iconography. This may include library/online research into the biography of the subject represented (if a portrait statue), elements of ancient Near Eastern or Egyptian religion or funerary practice, or aspects of everyday life in Greece etc. Where appropriate, you also may want to study another work (Egyptian, Near Eastern, Bronze Age, Greek, Roman etc.) in the MMA Collections for purposes of comparison, as you research and analyze your first piece in greater detail (for example the treatment of Isis and Aphrodite, funerary gifts of Egypt and Greece etc.). Please note: avoid using web-sites for your research. Papers that rely entirely on on-line sources for information will not be accepted.You should aim to have at least 3-4 sources for the research component. Footnotes may appear either at the bottom of the page, or in parentheses within the text. In contrast to the text, the footnotes should be single-spaced. Remember that a reference to someone else′s opinions without a footnote is plagiarism.
