Seller's Description:
VG+ Dustjacket with pictorial illustrations, red cloth-bound boards with gilt and embossed lettering on cover and spine. (5) 6-328pp. chiefly color illustrations. With over 300 full-color photographs, this is the first fully illustrated book devoted to Christian houses of worship in Egypt. The text incorporates the latest research to complement the broad geographic scope covering nearly all significant Coptic sites throughout the country, from the ancient Coptic churches in Old Cairo to the churches in the monasteries of Wadi al-Natrun, the Red Sea, and Upper Egypt. Churches associated with the Holy Family's sojourn in Egypt, including Gabar al-Tayr and Dayr al-Muharraq, enrich the volume. Many modern churches housing contemporary Coptic art that have not been dealt with in other publications are featured here--especially the Cathedral of St. Mark and his shrine at Anba Ruways in Cairo.
