Sailing down the Nile in the time of the pharaohs, from Abu Simbel to Alexandria, becomes a dream finally attainable thanks to the undeniable talent of Jean-Claude Golvin. A sumptuous, totally new Egypt, which brings to life the most grandiose ruins as well as the most mundane vestiges. Each image – around a hundred watercolors – is accompanied by commentaries on the architecture and archaeological discoveries, as well as numerous texts tracing the mythological, political and historical context, which allow one to understand the site in its entirety. A fourth edition, fully corrected, revised and expanded with two additional notebooks.
