Livre de qualité mais prix modique, incontournable pour passionnés d'égyptologie

Livre de bonne facture, papier de qualité, avec textes en trois langues : anglais, allemand, français et nombreuses images reproduisant une partie des remarquables œuvres de Prisse d'Avennes donnant une idée précise des qualités d'un auteur égyptologue passionné et artiste, le tout pour un prix des plus serrés. Incontournable pour les passionnés de l'Egypte ancienne.

Viel Inhalt, kleines Format

Ich mag diese kleinen Bücher von Taschen sehr. Nutze sie hauptsächlich als Inspirationsquelle für Designs und Illustrationen, daher ist für mich der schriftliche Inhalt eher Nebensache. Ich bin also kein Experte in Ägyptologie und möchte die Texte daher nicht bewerten. Das Format ist bei dieser Reihe an der Grenze von " zu klein ", aber die Fülle an Bilder und Informationen die man für diesen Preis bekommt ist immer toll. Die Aufmachung gefällt.
