Synopsis
A multi-purpose reference work, providing the key to the hidden meanings in Egyptian art: an encyclopaedia of the major signs and symbols, a visual compendium of artistic motifs, a sourcebook of Egyptian religious beliefs and ideas. The hieroglyphs are thematically organized and include: seated man * seated god * woman nursing child * wedjat eye * ear * breast * bull * cow * cat * lion * foreleg of ox * heart * falcon * vulture * ibis * wing * feather * crocodile * frog * scarab beetle * bee * tree * palm branch * lotus * sky * sun * star * djed column * fetish of Abydos * gold * ankh * fan * bow * knife * cartouche * Isis knot * board game * sistrum A full reference section is also provided, with a complete list of the hieroglyphs, a glossary and a guide to further reading., The legacy of Egyptian art, from colossal statues to finely wrought jewellery and minuscule charms, can appear deceptively simple. Without knowledge of the hieroglyphic images incorporated in the art, much remains obscure.

- 2***v (8)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe packaging was very minimal. One sheet of bubble wrap loosely around the item with way too much room left empty around it in the box. It arrived broken. I sent the photos to the seller immediately, and said I could try gluing the item. This was my attempt to meet in the middle and not require the full refund or the seller to loose out on the return cost of the broken merchandise. The seller offered no compensation.
- 4***r (105)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseMy item was shipped promptly and packaged nicely. It was new as described. Thank you very much!
- v***e (47)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseNot only was I sent the wrong Item, but the seller had the nerve to ask ME to send the book on to the proper customer! So I'm supposed to do her job as well? Pretty nervy to ask a first-time customer to correct a mistake YOU made! You flunked customer service.
