Author Description

This exhibition catalogue is a physically beautiful book written with Dr. Bianchi's customary elegance and scholarship. The photography is quite wonderful and this is important as the artifacts described are not, for the most part, available elsewhere. Many unusual Late Period artifacts are described and discussed in welcome detail. Dr. Bianchi`s engaging style invites deliberation, discussion and sometimes disagreement. It`s a wonderful opportunity to seriously consider some new pieces and overlooked genres. This book will add to your knowledge and understanding of Egyptian Art.
