Description

For millennia, the culture and philosophy of the ancient Egyptians have fascinated artists, historians, and non secular seekers all through the world. Now, with this deluxe edition, the legendary 3,500-year-old Papyrus of Ani—the most beautiful of the ornately illustrated Egyptian funerary scrolls ever found out—has been restored in its original sequences of text and artwork, the usage of the up to date advances in computer-imaging technology. Four exquisitely illustrated gatefold spreads and an acclaimed translation by two noted Egyptologists showcase the Papyrus’s elaborately bordered images and convey its intended sense of motion and meaning in a way that other books at the subject cannot start to match. For both lay readers and scholars interested in a variety of topics—from mysticism and philosophy to anthropology and astronomy—this sumptuous and accessible new volume will be an essential acquisition.??
