DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe great artifacts of Ancient Egypt owe much to the fertile banks of the Nile & the harsh African sunlight. The cool, windowless interiors of the great buildings of the Valley of the Kings, of Gizeh & Abu Simbel, provided broad surfaces to be inscribed with the hieroglyphics & illustrations that we recognize as Egyptian art. The religions of the river valley & the lives of the pharaohs furnished artists & craftsmen with ample themes. This richly illustrated book, first published in 1909, traces the artistic practices of the great dynasties through the statuary, paintings, reliefs, pottery & jewelry that have endured to the present day.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKStudents can navigate up and down the Nile River, becoming entranced by the mysteries of ancient Egypt. They can read about the beliefs and religious practices of early Egyptians, their inventions and architecture, as well as the daily life of both slaves and nobles. They can design a pharaoh's headdress and necklace, recreate an ancient marble game, mummify a replica of a stuffed cat, and learn the art of writing hieroglyphs. Each artfully rendered craft represents a historical window into the vanished world of the ancient Egyptians.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis present handbook is intended to aid in the understanding of Egyptian art, and the illustrations and descriptions are selected for that purpose only. The history of the art would require a far greater range of examples, in order to illustrate the growth and decay of each of the great periods; whereas here only the most striking works of each period are shown, in order to contrast the different civilisations. The origins and connections of the art in each age are scarcely touched, and the technical details are only such as are needed to see the conditions of the art. The archaeology of the subject would need as wide a treatment as the history, and these subjects can only appear here incidentally. It should be noticed that the divisions of artistic periods are often not the same as those of political history. Politically, the history divides at the XVIIth dynasty with the fall of the Hyksos, and at the XXIInd dynasty with the rise of the Delta government. But artistically the changes are under Tahutmes I, when Syrian influences broke in, and under the XXVIth dynasty, when the classical Greeks began to dominate the art.
