Akhentaten was Pharaoh of the Amarna period named after the capital he created. During this period artwork was created more naturalistically most depictions of Akhentaten showed a bit of belly, the facial features were also very distinct (this is very unlike the earlier ideal royalty depictions of previous pharaohs)

How and when is Egyptian art used?
Traditionally, the figures of humans were drawn in profile but with one eye and both shoulders shown frontally. The largest figure shown on tomb paintings was that of the occupant - regardless of the actual height of the deceased. Ancient Egyptian art is characterized by the use of simple lines and simple shapes to create the concept of order and balance. Horizontal and vertical reference lines were used by artists in order to maintain correct proportions of the images. This art style resulted in somewhat stilted forms which were caused by a lack of perspective. This art style was used for thousands of years. The only change was during the transient Armana art period.
