Présentation de l'éditeur
Behind the pyramids: Everyday life in Ancient EgyptHow much do we really know about Ancient Egypt? The pharaohs and pyramids are familiar history fodder, but what about the farmers, the soldiers, the laborers, and the families that made up the vast majority of this much mythologized civilization?With a thrilling spread of visual references, this TASCHEN adventure attempts to set the record straight by offering a distinctive everyday take on Ancient Egypt. Like a piece of published excavation, the book explores the many layers of this ancient society, digging down from the sacred or grandiose to the daily experiences and ordinary individuals.The democratic approach bestows this distant era with exciting vitality and relevance for all the family. As we explore everything from family arrangements to leisure activities to labor movements, we not only uncover the different experiences of this ancient land but also parallels and precedents to our own societies. With a bounty of visual references to document this distinct social history, the result is a particularly vivid encounter with an ancient age and with some of our most ingenious and influential forebears.

This book introduces some of the most important masterpieces, ranging from the Old Kingdom during the Third millennium BC to the Roman Period.The works encompass sculptures, reliefs, sarcophagi, murals, masks, and decorative items, most of them now in the Egyptian Museum in Cairo, but some occupying places of honor as part of the World Cultural Heritage in museums such as the Louvre in Paris, the British Museum in London, the Egyptian Museum in Berlin, and the Metropolitan Museum in New York.Featured works include: Seated statue of King DjoserWood relief of Hesire on a dining tableStatue of a scribe made of various materialsFunerary relief of AschaitSphinx of Sesostris IRobed statue of CherihotepReliefs from the Temple at CarnacSarcophagus of Queen HatshepsutMurals from ThebesSeated figure of the goddess SachmetStatue of Queen TejeHead of Akhenaten (Amenophis IV)Queen NefertitiGolden mask of TutankhamunRamses I from Abu SimbelHorus falcon made of graniteStone relief from the temple ambulatory at EdfuAbout the seriesBorn back in 1985, the Basic Art Series has evolved into the best-selling art book collection ever published.
