According to the passage, what conception of man can be inferred from Egyptian architecture?
Explanation:
In the passage (paragraph 4), the author states the thought of Egyptian artists, “The Egyptian architects were possessed by the consciousness of the awful, irresistible domination of the ways of nature; they had no thought to give to the insignificant atom that was man.” That shows that Egyptian art thought that man was inconsequential before the forces of nature (option 4). Option 2 showcases an opposite idea to this and hence is eliminated. Since man is insignificant, he cannot be the centre of creation (option 1). Option 3 gives the idea that the Greeks had and was not that of the Egyptians.
Hence, the correct answer is option 4.
