Cover Story: Stylistic differences between animals and humans in ancient Egyptian art are often emphasized to support the argument that animals and their environs encapsulate ancient Egyptian ideas of “chaos”, while humans and their cultivated world encapsulate “order”. A closer look at animal imagery shows that the same artistic restraints were placed on both human and animal representations. This article examines predynastic and early dynastic material and surveys depictions of desert animals from Egyptian tombs from the Old Kingdom until the New Kingdom. The formal and iconographical analyses presented here problematize the assumption that animals were represented with greater artistic freedom, and that there were binary categories of “order” and “chaos” in the ancient Egyptian mindset.
