SynopsisA multi-purpose reference work, providing the key to the hidden meanings in Egyptian art: an encyclopaedia of the major signs and symbols, a visual compendium of artistic motifs, a sourcebook of Egyptian religious beliefs and ideas. The hieroglyphs are thematically organized and include: seated man * seated god * woman nursing child * wedjat eye * ear * breast * bull * cow * cat * lion * foreleg of ox * heart * falcon * vulture * ibis * wing * feather * crocodile * frog * scarab beetle * bee * tree * palm branch * lotus * sky * sun * star * djed column * fetish of Abydos * gold * ankh * fan * bow * knife * cartouche * Isis knot * board game * sistrum A full reference section is also provided, with a complete list of the hieroglyphs, a glossary and a guide to further reading., The legacy of Egyptian art, from colossal statues to finely wrought jewellery and minuscule charms, can appear deceptively simple. Without knowledge of the hieroglyphic images incorporated in the art, much remains obscure.
