About This Book

A concise handbook surveying the development and character of ancient Egyptian art, outlining major periods and schools and identifying distinctive traits in statuary, relief, painting, and architecture. It surveys applied arts—stone-working, jewellery, metalwork, glazed ware, pottery, ivory, wood, plaster, and clothing—describing materials, techniques, and representative examples. Emphasis is placed on technical processes, stylistic contrasts between ages, and the effects of external influences, with selected illustrations and close details chosen to help readers compare works and understand the practical conditions that shaped artistic form.
