Primitive art in Egypt

Capart, Jean, 1877-1947 · 1905 · London : H. Grevel · 38 pictures

Primitive art in Egypt is a 1905 scholarly study by Jean Capart, published in London by H. Grevel, examining early Egyptian antiquities for a specialist readership of archaeologists and art historians. Its photographs show carved stone fragments with relief figures and symbols, small animal-head pottery or clay pieces, and a decorated vessel with registers of incised figures and plant motifs, offering a designer dense, rough-textured carved patterns and simple animal forms to adapt.
