Euphrosyne Doxiadis - The Mysterious Fayum Portraits : Faces From Ancient Egypt - 2005
The Fayum portraits were created by the people of a flourishing district of
Roman Egypt during the first three centuries AD. In the old Egyptian
tradition, these people embalmed the bodies of their dead, but then they
placed over the mummy, a painted portrait to preserve the memory of each
individual. Over 1000 portraits have so far been discovered of men, women and
children. This book features over 100 of these ancient paintings. The
explanatory text sets the people and the paintings in their social, artistic
and geographical context, and describes the artistic techniques used in their
creation.
