EGYPTIAN WALL PAINTING
Published by Abbeville Press. 1st. 2008
Nearly fine condition in a nearly fine dustwrapper. This book focuses on two-dimensional depictions in ancient Egypt, examining them as part of an elaborate code designed to maintain the so-called Maat - or Cosmic Order, Truth-Justice, and Universal Harmony - and thus integral to Egyptian lives and beliefs. Very large format. Very heavy. Beige cloth boards, black title to spine. Colour illustrations throughout.
A lovely copy. Pictorial dustwrapper is lightly rubbed at top front corner. Contained in publisher's slipcase which is lightly rubbed to lower rear corner (NR F).
