5.0 out of 5 stars A truly stunning and unusually panoramic history, Dec 5 2002

Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Christian Egypt: Coptic Art and Monuments Through Two Millennia (Hardcover)

Compiled and written by Massimo Capuani (historian and researcher in the field of Eastern Christian Churches, as well as Middle Eastern and Mediterranean culture) and enhanced with informed and informed contributions by Otto F. A. Meinardus (Fellow of the Institute of Coptic Studies in Cairo) and Marie-Helene Rustschowscaya (Head Curator, Department of Egyptian Antiquities, Louvre, and Director of the Coptic section), as well as emendations and an introduction to this English-language edition by Gawdat Gabra, Christian Egypt: Coptic Art And Monuments Through Two Millennia is a truly stunning and unusually panoramic history of the artistic expression of the Coptic Church ranging across hundreds of years. Gorgeous color photography, illustrative black-and-white images, showcase the extensively detailed background information on the history and creation of great works of architecture and expression which fill this singularly impressive volume from cover to cover. Christian Egypt is a highly recommended and much appreciated contribution to Art History, Christian History, and Egyptian History academic reference collections as well as the non-specialist general reader with an interest in Coptic art and monuments.
