Описание: Tutankhamun's tomb artefacts and many other celebrated Egyptian antiquities are conserved in the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. The museum's immense artistic and archaeological heritage comes alive in Araldo de Luca's series of fine images. Here we find works of art, astounding for their skill and ingenuity, objects used in daily life, and the mortal remains of great pharaohs - especially comprehensive descriptions of the famous grave goods of Tutankhamun. Also featured are treasures of Tanis, the book dedicates ample space to what a century of excavation has revealed in the pyramid sites of Giza, Saqqarah, and Dahshur, the royal tombs of Thebes, and the temple of Karnak, where hundreds of statues have been found, including some of the most splendid examples of Egyptian sculpture. Written for the non-specialist but a delight for connoisseurs as well, this volume is an elegant but practical itinerary for the world's greatest collection of Egyptian antiquities. With descriptions and photographs that bring out the fascinating details of the treasures of Tutankhamun, this is a sumptuous production with dramatic close-up photography. |
