Hardcover. Etat : VG+. Illustrated dustjacket, red boards with gilt lettering on spine. x, 1-228pp. chiefly color with some b+w illustrations. France perfected the art of the dessinateur in the early 19th century, relating it to the newer crafts of lithography, colored printing from metal or stone plates, and eventually photography. This art can be relished in the thousands of drawings assembled in the Description d'Egypte, Napoleon's eternal gift to the civilization of the Nile Valley. Emile Prisse d'Avennes was the contingent heir of this legacy; indeed he may be deemed its pinnacle in that color reproduction often enhanced his purely linear talents. It would be a courageous Egyptologist at the very end of the twentieth century who would eschew the use of the two volumes of illustrations in his Atlas de l'art Egyptien because many are of buildings or decoration which have disappeared. The very same reasons obtain for his equally monumental L'art arabe d'apres les monuments du Kaire, in three volumes,the subject of this new updated edition. N° de réf. du vendeur 201863
