Ancient Egypt.
Egypt - ancient state world, about the history of which a lot of interesting information has been preserved. It was in this mysterious and mysterious country of the pharaohs that many types and forms of art were born, which later developed in Asia and Europe. They served as the basis for ancient aesthetics - the starting point of all the arts of our time.

Egypt is located on a narrow strip of fertile land along the Nile between the Sahara and the Red Sea. The annual floods of the river turned the rocky desert into a flourishing valley: economic prosperity led to the complication of relations in society and created the conditions for the emergence in Egypt of the first state in the history of human civilization with exceptionally peculiar customs, customs and beliefs (Fig. 1, 3). Everything here is unique characteristic features: religion, architecture, plastic arts and painting.
