Book description
Why read it?
1 author picked Reading Egyptian Art as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This book is not about learning to read hieroglyphs so much as about understanding the relationship between hieroglyphs and Egyptian art. As hieroglyphs are pictures, the same pictures can be used in an artwork, as opposed to a written text. The author takes 100 of the over 700 hieroglyphs used in Egyptian writing, and shows how they are used in Egyptian art. He dedicates 2 pages to each symbol, with a written description and illustrations.
From Tamara's list on Ancient Egypt by an archaeological illustrator.
