Download or read book Atlas of Egyptian Art written by Prisse D'Avennes and published by American Univ in Cairo Press. This book was released on 2007 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This enchanted tour of Egyptian art by one of its early explorers is one of the most beautiful modern works on ancient Egyptian art. Prisse d'Avennes' monumental work, first published in Paris over a ten-year period between 1868 and 1878, includes the only surviving record of many lost artifacts. ''None of Prisse's contemporaries had the skill or endurance to bring such an endeavor to such a brilliant end. He was far ahead of his time in his awareness of the vulnerability of the monuments and the need to protect them and to record them. His were the first reliable drawings of Egyptian architecture and ornaments and the first plans and sections of constructions newly excavated. He returned to Paris [in 1860] with a rich harvest of 300 drawings, 400 meters of squeezes, and 150 photographs.'' - Maarten J. Raven, Curator of the Egyptian Department, the Rijksmuseum van Oudheden, Leiden. Now reissued in a handy new hardbound reference format.
Download or read book The Art in Ancient Egypt written by Georges Perrot and published by e-artnow. This book was released on 2020-12-17 with total page 701 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Art in Ancient Egypt in two volumes is a study of Egyptian arts and of their connection with the national religion and civilization written by French archeologists and historians Georges Perrot and Charles Chipiez. The aim of the work was to trace the course of the great evolution which culminated in the age of Pericles and came to an end in that of Marcus Aurelius. That evolution forms a complete entirety – an unbroken chain of cause and effect uniting the two eras. Using carefully selected examples authors prove that the art of the Egyptians went through the same process of development as those of other nationalities, earlier and later ones, and that the unique quality of the sculptures and paintings of the Nile Valley was a persistent affinity to simplification, which comes in part from the habit created by writing the hieroglyphic and in part from the materials used.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The powerful images of Egyptian art span over 3000 years. These ancient artists took their inspiration from the Nile valley and its people, the awesome majesty of the pharaohs, and the mysterious world of the gods. Much of the material that has survived was intended to serve a deceased man or woman in the afterlife. This volume includes some of the more famous images: the gold mask of Tutankhamun, the haunting face of the enigmatic pharaoh Akhenaten, and the striking tomb painting of the beautiful Nefertari, wife of Ramesses II; the magical burial rites illustrated in the papyri known as the Books of the Dead and the tomb paintings that reflect the expectations for the afterlife; and finally statues of Osiris and the other deities that controlled every aspect of life--and rebirth. --back cover.
