Women have played many roles in societies since the dawn of time, continually changing over time and from society to society. Every society has a special place and role for women, good and bad. Women's freedoms and equality have varied from oppression to freedom. I will discuss some specific works of art and explain how the art shows the role of women in a specific society. I will tell you about their paril and the results obtained over time. Giving you a glimpse into the lives of women and how they were perceived by men and society. Some respected women and some disrespected them, but through it all women found a way to persevere. Women hold a place in history from culture to culture, and we see it in many works of art. From art we can get a glimpse into the cultural view of women and how they were treated in society. Akhenaten, Nefertiti and their children blessed by the Aten (solar disk), relief of Akhenaten (tell el-Amarna. 1348-1335 BC Egyptian relief. Akhenaten and Nefertiti are seated on thrones or chairs and are of equal size. Akhenaten holds his daughter and appears to kiss her. Nefertiti also has one of their daughters on her lap the top shines on all of them you can see that the emphasis is on family and upper class women who are quite equal to the men in Egypt had the right to divorce, owned property such as land, slaves, and were entitled to their possessions before marriage after divorce. Women could also hold jobs in this period in Egypt, often as priestesses or professional mourners at funerary events. These jobs women were also shown in a very public form men in Egyptian society. Very few people... half of the paper... I care from their society and from men. With such variation in rights and how women were treated, it is a glimpse into our very nature as human beings. Both genders play a role in our societies, from mothers, to housewives, to priestesses. It is in the very nature of women to bend and flex with the times and persevere. Every society has a different view of women and the role they will play in society. It is interesting to reflect on why certain cultures hold women in such high esteem and others oppress them. Women have grown and diversified over time and will continue to change the world. Hold a place in this universe that is special and powerful, no matter how society sees it. With the advent of future societies, women will definitely have a place in society, be it good or bad, only those societies will be able to choose it.
