Hardcover. Black cloth with white lettering on spine. Color-illustrated dust jacket, blue-green spine with white lettering. Illustrated endpages/flyleaves, 224 pp. 280 color illustrations. "Of all the world's early civilizations, it was that of ancient Egypt that fostered the closest relationship with the animal world. All aspects of life, both secular and sacred, gave prominent place to man's involvement with living creatures of every kind. . [This book shows] the incomparable richness of the pharaonic fauna in all forms of artistic expression -- painting, sculpture, relief carving, architectural ornamentation and hieroglyphs -- ranging from astonishing realism in the depiction of birds and beasts, both wild and domesticated, with which the people of the Nile Valley came into daily contact, to hieratic stylization in portraying the pantheon of animal-headed gods and the sacred and fabulous creatures that inhabited the ancient Egyptians' devotional, funerary and magic world."

Dettagli prodotto Copertina flessibile: 223 pagineEditore: Le Lettere (1 gennaio 2001)Lingua: ItalianoISBN-10: 8871665899ISBN-13: 978-8871665894Sempre presenti nella scrittura, nelle pitture delle tombe, nei bassorilievi e nelle sculture monumentali dell'Antico Egitto, gli animali, simbolo delle forze che stanno all'origine e che presiedono all'organizzazione del mondo, sono il centro di quello straordinario mondo figurativo. Aiuto prezioso, come il bue, oppure pericoloso predatore, come il leone o il coccodrillo, l'animale è onnipresente, come testimoniato dalle infinite rappresentazioni pervenuteci. Gli animali popolano anche il mondo della mitologia e dell'aldilà. Questo volume invita a scoprire l'iconografia egizia presentando accanto a inevitabili capolavori, documenti meno noti e a volte inediti, che rivelano l'originalità degli artisti dell'Antico Egitto.
