Amenhotop IV is significant for his rejection of polytheism for henotheism. He changes his name and the capitol of Egypt to Akhenaten reflecting his belief in only a single god. Amenhotep IV consolidates the power of the pharaoh who, as the representative of Aten on earth, is the sole object of worship. He also initiates a new, more realistic and intimate style of art known as the Amarna style. Amenhotop IV gives prominence to his wife Nefertiti who becomes a frequent subject of sculpture.
