Sinopsis

Primitive Art In Egypt is a comprehensive book written by Jean Capart that explores the art and culture of ancient Egypt. The book is a detailed study of the indigenous art that was created by the people who lived in Egypt before the arrival of the Pharaonic civilization. Capart examines the art of the pre-dynastic period, which was characterized by simple, abstract forms and motifs such as spirals, zigzags, and geometric shapes. He also looks at the art of the Naqada culture, which was marked by the use of animal and human figures in pottery, stone, and other materials. The book covers a wide range of topics related to primitive art in Egypt, including the religious beliefs and practices of the early Egyptians, the symbolism and meaning behind the art, and the techniques and materials used in its creation. Throughout the book, Capart provides detailed descriptions and analysis of various artifacts and artworks, including pottery, figurines, and rock art. He also includes numerous illustrations and photographs to help readers visualize the art and understand its significance. Overall, Primitive Art In Egypt is an essential resource for anyone interested in the early history and culture of Egypt, as well as for those interested in the development of art and aesthetics in ancient civilizations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
