Answer:

The statues of the greater Gods used to be larger than the smaller deities. The sculptures and paintings of ancient Egypt all have very finely and precisely carved faces and physical features. Egyptian art also portrayed the supremacy and importance of the Pharaoh and other political or religious figures.
