This account of their technique covers the work of the Egyptian tomb painters and of later decorators of walls and ceilings, explains the difference between tempera, oil, gouache and water colour, and examines illumination, miniatures, and the instruments of drawing. There is advice on how to care for paintings and drawings, how to deal with some of the problems which may arise and when to call in the expert. Illustrated. 159 pp. Slight foxing to end pages and spine of cover. Small crease to corner front cover.(We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences.
