Chapman, Suzanne F. With text by Dows Dunham.
The Royal Cemeteries of Kush. Volume III: Decorated Chapels of the Meroitic Pyramids at Meroë and Barkal.
Oversized imperial folio, ca. 62x49cm. Pp. (iv), 5, (2) fold-out List of Plates bound at end. Plus 34 leaves of plates, comprising of Chapman's drawings and of photo plates, all printed in collotype on recto only. Hardcover, bound in the original cloth-backed boards, upper board printed in black, half-title present, decorative device to title-page. A fine copy in excellent condition. ~ The fine collotype plates were printed by Meriden Gravure Co. of Meriden, Connecticut; the letterpress text was printed by Harvard University Printing Office. In Dunham's words, the substance of this volume lies wholly in the plates. Collotype is one of the most accurate and attractive methods of photomechanical tonal printing processes. Highly skilled and expensive process, it cannot produce more than a limited number of impressions. It has been used for single-sheet prints and luxury portfolios, and since the 1950s has been abandoned by all except a few small specialist firms.

Wreszinski's written report accompanies a superbly produced photographic document, taken entirely on location and published here for the first time. Collotype is one of the most accurate and attractive methods of photomechanical tonal printing processes.

I: Papyrus bilingues; II: Monument en marbre; III: Papyrus grecs. With the Appendix: Papyrus bilingue, et livre magique, postérieurement reçus. Caspar Jacob Christiaan Reuvens (1793-1835), Dutch Egyptologist. Also known as Caspari Jacobi Christiani Reuvens, Gaspard Jacob Chrétien Reuvens, Casparus Jacobus Christianus Reuvens, and Kaspar Jakob Christian Reuvens. Studied law and classics in Amsterdam and Leiden but became interested in archaeology during a stay in Paris. He was appointed first director of the Leiden Museum of Antiquities and first professor of archaeology in the Netherlands (Leiden University, 1818-1835). It was Reuvens who transformed the mediocre archaeological cabinet of Leiden University to the National Museum of Antiquities of the Netherlands. Backed by King William I, he acquired the successive collections of De Lescluze, Cimba, and Anastasi, as well as numerous classical collections. Among his books are "Epimetrum de quibusdam monumentis cum Pollionis historia conjunctis" (1820); and "Periculum animadversionum archaeologicarum ad cippos Punicos Humbertianos Musei Antiquarii Lugduno-Batavi" (1822). Antoine-Jean Letronne (1787-1848) was a French archaeologist, director of the Ecole des Chartes, and inspector-general of the University of France. In 1831 he became professor of history in the College de France, a chair he exchanged in 1838 for that of archaeology. In 1840 he became the keeper of the national archives.

Reisner, George Andrew; (William Stevenson Smith).
A History of the Giza Necropolis; The Tomb of Hetep-heres [Hetepheres] the Mother of Cheops: A Study of Egyptian Civilization in the Old Kingdom, I-II. [TWO VOLUMES].
Two volumes. Small folio. Pp. xlvii, (1), 532, plus 75 plates with multiple images to each, and 6 large, folding plans bound at end. With 325 illustrations to text; xxv, (3),107, plus 55 plates with multiple images to each, and 147 illustrations on 21 separately printed leaves, bound at end. Hardcover, uniformly bound in the original publisher's forest green cloth, small insignificant mark at bottom corner, gilt lettering to covers and spines, volume II with worn dust-jacket. In a very good condition, fine interiors. ~ First edition. Complete set. Volume II completed and revised by William Stevenson Smith and published posthumously. George Andrew Reisner (1867-1942) was the first person to make fully systematic excavations in Egypt, exploiting the technique of recorded digging much further than Petrie and earlier archaeologists had done. This attention to every detail and the scrupulous care taken meant that although his reports were much fuller than those of his predecessors, they also required much more time for preparation, resulting in a great part of his work remaining incomplete and unpublished at his death. His publications were of great importance and of monumental proportions, with a detailed study unknown before his time. The wonderful plates in Volume I are printed in collotype, one of the most accurate and attractive methods of photomechanical tonal printing processes. Highly skilled and expensive process, it cannot produce more than a limited number of impressions. It has been used for single-sheet prints and luxury portfolios, and since the 1950s has been abandoned by all except a few small specialist firms. Beinlich-Seeber 16565 (vol. I).
