I have come across many books on ancient Egyptian art and this one is by far the best introduction on the topic! It is an easily digestible overview and extremely informative. It also features many high quality images with descriptive captions to accompany the text. I read this book over a year ago and still recall bits of information that I read when the topic of ancient Egypt comes up in conversation. It is a great jumping off point if a specific period of Egyptian art captures your interest. It has become one of my favorite additions to the art history bookshelf in my home!
